Greater Good
We contribute
At the RISK Conference, we’re not only focused on cutting-edge technology and business strategy — we’re equally committed to building a stronger future for the next generation. We believe in giving back and supporting young people, especially those who face challenges in pursuing their ambitions.
That’s why we invest in empowering aspiring athletes, helping them access the resources they need to move forward. From training programs and professional equipment to scholarships that open doors, our goal is to help young talent stay in the race and reach their full potential.
You can be part of this mission too. By taking part in our humanitarian auction, you’re not only bidding on unique items and experiences — you’re directly contributing to opportunities that can change lives. Together, we can support the next generation and give them the chance to go further, faster, and with confidence.
About the organizations
TOM is a telephone helpline for children and adolescents, operating under the umbrella of the Slovenian Association of Friends of Youth (ZPMS). It was established in 1990 at the initiative of the Commission for the Rights of the Child within ZPMS. Five years later, a national network was formed, consisting of 9 counseling groups and connecting around 200 trained counselors.
New technologies and the rise of the internet have profoundly changed the world and communication for children and adolescents, which is why, since 2007, the online information portal E-TOM (www.e-tom.si) has also been in operation. It includes counseling via email and, since 2013, also offers support through an online chatroom.
Each year, they respond to around 30,000 calls, nearly one-fifth of which involve in-depth counseling conversations.
The Mastercard Sports Academy is intended for athletes. On the one hand, professional athletes and those who are well on their way to becoming one. On the other hand, also for those who want to be connected with sports in any way.
The Football School of Soccer club Fužinar is in the heart of the Carinthia region in Slovenia, close to the Austrian border. The Ravne na Koroškem city is smaller in size but very famous for sports, achievements, and open mind people. The city itself is sports-oriented and thus enables and offers opportunities for football development.
Football school currently counts already around 200 children, who are looked after by educated coaches, most of them with PRO licenses, thus enabling a wide potential for the future of club.
