What MN does

Mezi námi, o.p.s. (MN) is a Czech nonprofit public benefit organization founded in 2013 that designs and delivers intergenerational programs linking children and seniors. Its main beneficiaries are children from kindergartens and elementary schools and seniors from retirement homes and community centers, with related activities reaching foster families. The portfolio includes the storytelling program Tell (POVÍDEJ), the reading program Read (PŘEČTI), Art and Craft Workshops (DÍLNY), Education (VZDĚLÁVÁNÍ), Volunteering and Support (POMÁHEJ), IT Cheerfully (IT Zvesela), Online Activities (ONLINE), Video Fairy Tales (VIDEOPOHÁDKY), Fairy-Tale Year (POHÁDKOVÝ ROK), and a physical community center.

Mezi námi delivers these services directly through schools, senior facilities, care facilities, community centers, and volunteers across the Czech Republic. It operates the Intergenerational Community Center (Mezigenerační komunitní centrum) in Prague 4 and has a registered office in Prague 9. The organization also operates the Intergenerational (Mezigenerační) quality label and the Intergenerational IT Bridges (Mezigenerační IT mosty) project financed by the PPF Foundation. Its disclosed technology is primarily online content, video stories, and digital-skills instruction; no app, API, proprietary platform, or AI modality is disclosed.

The business model is mission funding rather than charging program participants. Mezi námi provides its intergenerational programs and services without charge and relies on donations, grants, and public collections, with support from public institutions and private foundations. It does not disclose program pricing, contract values, annual revenue, or funding-round totals. The commercial and organizational model is therefore grant- and donor-funded program delivery, distributed through institutional partnerships and a community-based volunteer network.
