The “Śródmieście” Community Centre in Białystok has officially been named a winner of the Halina Konopacka LOTTO Foundation’s “Sport, Culture and Local Communities” programme!

On Sunday (28 June), cheques were presented to the programme’s beneficiaries in Warsaw’s Służewiec district. We were among the 56 beneficiaries from across Poland, with our project entitled ‘Creative Synergy in Śródmieście’!

We had the honour of celebrating this success in the company of some exceptional guests, such as:
Marcin Gortat – LOTTO brand ambassador and a Polish sporting icon. His presence brought incredible energy to the event!
Żaneta Cwalina-Śliwowska – Secretary of State at the Ministry of Sport and Tourism, who emphasised in her official speeches how crucial it is for regional development to combine sport and culture.
Marek Orzechowski – Chairman of the Board of the Halina Konopacka LOTTO Foundation.
Beata Stelmach – Chairwoman of the Board of Totalizator Sportowy.

The funds raised will enable us to transform the Art Studio, which will soon feature:
Ergonomic, modern workstations – professional, adjustable tables and chairs ensuring the highest level of creative comfort.
Specialist studio lighting – providing perfect colour reproduction, essential for precise, detailed work.
A multimedia screen – a large-format monitor that will open up new possibilities for our participants.

Thank you to everyone for your votes and support!

A view of a bright, modern conference hall filled with an audience seated in chairs and facing the stage on the red carpet. On the right-hand side, large panoramic windows offer a view of the green grounds and the outline of the racing stadium. On the left is a wall covered in artificial greenery. The ceiling features modern LED lighting and purple acoustic panels. The audience, seen from behind, are seated and watching the stage, on which stands a screen displaying the Lotto logo. Some people in the front row are taking photos on their mobile phones. Three people – a tall, bearded man in a black shirt, a woman in a white dress and a man in grey checked trousers – are standing on the red carpet in a modern room. Together, they are holding a large, blue-and-white commemorative cheque bearing the Lotto logo, the inscription ‘63 370 ZŁ’ and information about the ‘Sportowo Kulturalnie Lokalnie’ programme. In the background, a screen displaying illuminated graphics can be seen, along with a flight of stairs and a metal railing. A large, blue-and-white rectangular commemorative cheque leans against a dark wall, with a navy blue paper gift bag standing beneath it. At the top of the cheque is the LOTTO logo and the slogan ‘When you play, everything’s fine!’. In the centre, within a gold frame, is the large sum of “63,370 ZŁ”. Below this is the inscription “Amount awarded as part of the ‘Sportowo Kulturalnie Lokalnie’ programme”, with the partners’ initials and logos at the bottom. The Totalizator Sportowy and LOTTO logos are also visible on the paper bag.
