EveryMatrix ups commitment to Kids Academy as it celebrates five years

Industry platform and systems provider EveryMatrix has reaffirmed its commitment to maintain and expand its Kids Academy corporate social responsibility programme as it celebrates five years of the initiative.

The project aims to offer Romanian children the chance to access quality education that would be otherwise unavailable to them, across computer science, mathematics and English.

Ebbe Groes, Group CEO of EveryMatrix, commented: “This project started almost five years ago when we’ve decided to be more involved in the community, and what more suitable way than to take care of the future generation.

“Our three teachers are helping the kids to do their homework; they host interactive learning classes and are there to assist the kids overcome rough times in their family life by counselling them.

“Beside sponsoring the centres with modern equipment and supporting the kids to travel to contests, we are also hosting fundraising events for them, such as Baking Day or Let’s Play D’Arts, where employees get involved and spend time helping the cause.

“We’ve seen amazing results, kids who made great progress in both their personal and academic lives, and we are committed to keep and expand this project for many years.”

Over the last five years, EveryMatrix has offered its education programme across two day centres which have been managed by Bucharest’s Child Protective Services. Earlier this year the firm got involved in its third centre in order to grow the number of beneficiaries.

This year, the Kids Academy programme has been listed as a Non-Governmental Organisation and is now supporting over 100 pupils per year. Three full-time teachers have been hired to help the children learn valuable information which will help them later in their academic and professional lives.
