23rd Amber Gladiolus Award Gala

Amber Gladiolus and Amber Catamaran prizes have been awarded!

Prestigious Maciej Płażyński Bursztynowy Mieczik awards and numerous distinctions were presented on December 1 to Pomeranian non-governmental organisations, associations and foundations during a ceremonial gala in the European Solidarity Centre in Gdańsk.

The idea and concept of Bursztynowy Mieczik Award, which has been granted since 1994, emerged in the Regional Information and NGOs Support Centre. Amber Gladiolus is the first undertaking of this kind in our country because it reflects the recognition for non-governmental organisations’ activities at a regional level.

The special award for exceptional attitude during summer storms was presented to the Voluntary Fire Brigade in Dziemiany. The award was funded by Olivia Business Centre and was presented by company’s representative – Stefan Grabski.

The Marshall of the Senate of the Republic of Poland Award was presented by Antoni Szymański, the senator, to Małgorzata Rybicka from Autistic People Association.

Amber Catamaran Award was collected by Ryszard Kalkowski, the mayor of Szemud commune. The Amber Catamaran Award was collected also by ” You Can Do It Differently” Association from Starogard Gdański.

The special award for the overall activity was presented to St. Brother Albert’s Aid Society, Gdańsk Circle.

Debut of the Year Award was collected by Actively Moving Forward! Foundation which introduced a special bike for disabled persons on our roads.

Citizens’ Prize was collected by “Kaszubianki” Association.
