Bridging the Cultural Gap in Small Communities
The lack of funding for cultural institutions has forced many small libraries and community centers across the world to close their doors. However, there are also stories of hope that prove a different future is possible. One such story comes from Serbia, where a social media post inspired a positive change, leading the Meridianbet Foundation to take action.
In response, the foundation launched a major global campaign aimed at supporting small libraries and encouraging reading habits in local communities. As part of the campaign, Meridianbet employees collected books they had read and donated them to small libraries and culture centers.
A Catalyst for a Wider Regional Initiative
This local success has become the starting point for a larger regional campaign by the Meridianbet Foundation. With the goal of preserving cultural institutions, the campaign will focus on equipping small libraries with a diverse selection of books and encouraging communities to embrace reading once again.
“Preserving cultural institutions is a matter of great importance for the Meridianbet Foundation,” said Stefan Todorović, head of Global CSR at Meridianbet Foundation. “Our employees have once again demonstrated their willingness to contribute. A large number of books were collected through an internal campaign, now enriching the shelves of dozens of libraries across our markets. This is just one of many similar actions we hope to see more of in the future.”
Expanding the Campaign Across Regions
The campaign will be implemented across all markets Meridianbet, part of the Golden Matrix Group (NASDAQ: GMGI) operates. The aim is to enrich local libraries, support lifelong learning, and encourage reading habits, especially in underserved communities.
By donating books and resources, the foundation seeks to ensure that small libraries can continue to exist despite financial constraints. This initiative reflects Meridianbet’s broader commitment to corporate social responsibility and its mission to empower communities through education and culture.
