Five years ago in Lutsk “New Lutsk” Foundation began work. In 2016 the Foundation’s name was changed into “Tilky Razom”.

For the founder of the Foundation, Lutsk is a city where he was born and raised, his parents live here, therefore he broke the ice in his small homeland. It is hometown, where Foundation’s major projects have been executed, and everyone from a newborn child at a birthing centre to a veteran has become aware of these projects.

In the summer 2015, having taken into account an experience of four year work of the Foundation, a Center of City Development that united 8 Quarter Development Offices (QDO) situated in different microdistricts of the city. QDO’s have become the platform for communication, providing information, assistance and an opportunity to take part in Foundation’s projects. The work of QDO’s on the whole new level allows for dialogue with every citizen of Lutsk and suggests alternatives of effective solution for challenging issues. Trainings on self government, topical workshops on sharing experiences, meetings with concerned people are held here, as well as consultations are given, etc.

Monthly QDO’s officers file down over 700 references from the citizens of Lutsk who care about the city’s well-being. Each office has become the centre of ideas and initiatives accumulation. Based on received information, the Passport of QDO has been prepared, which in the future will be a guide for choosing priorities of Foundation’s work in every microdistrict of Lutsk.

Ever since the Foundation changed its title into “Tilky Razom”, the geography and range of its work have changed.  In the second quarter of this year in every district centre and in the town of Novovolynsk there were opened 17 representational offices of the Foundation, which are a part of a structural subdivision named “The Centre of Territorial Community Development”. 42 experts were trained for the arrangement of work, among them – 36 are locals of district centres. The representational offices organize their work under Foundation’s projects, but first of all, they focus their attention on the support of community initiatives.
