Funds will be raised for the flood-damaged Culture and Recreation Center in Lądek Zdrój.

The campaign is supported by Program Trzeci of Polish Radio, the Polish Music Foundation, and Dominika Barabas, a composer, arranger, lyricist, producer, and multi-instrumentalist from Lądek Zdrój, which was particularly devastated by the floods.

Although she lost her car and her building was flooded, Dominika actively supports the local community and works to rebuild the cultural life of her hometown so it can once again attract artists and culture lovers.

The goal of the campaign is to raise approximately 500,000 PLN (about 117,400 EUR) to revive the cultural life in Lądek Zdrój and support local youth in developing their talents.

You can support the campaign financially by making a donation on the Polish Music Foundation's website. Details: pfm.waw.pl
