PROGRAM

“We have a program… to support you in designing your projects”

Dear Project Manager,

We know how difficult it is for you to find funds and resources for your organization, and ways to succeed in organizing quality activities and in writing successful projects.

As you know, the European Union offers many opportunities, but who is really benefiting from them to make a real impact in different Communities?

According to our experience, many organizations working in this field are not well structured and lack professionalism. They do not respond to e-mails, they usually pay little attention to the selection of participants or to the creation of content, and they are not specialized in one specific topic but adhere to any type of project only to obtain grants without guaranteeing high quality or social impact.

We think differently and we act differently, as our main mission is to work with reliable partners to develop high-quality projects with a real impact on Society.

If you have the same feelings and beliefs, or if you wish to improve your organization, we can try to support each other in changing the situation and in building a great mutual partnership.

WHO WE ARE

L’ORMAinternational is the international Sector of L’ORMA, a professional educational agency working in the field of Sport, Education, and Social Entrepreneurship since 2000.

We are an established non-profit organization present nationwide for 18 years. Every year, we provide hundreds of educational activities, involving 400 teachers, 60 schools, and almost 6,000 children and families.

Although we operate mainly in the nonprofit world, we also work with dozens of institutions, schools, and private companies providing them educational services.

Over the last 6 years, we have specialized in the designing, writing, and implementation of European projects, always focusing on “our” topics, such as Sport, Education, and Social Entrepreneurship.

We have developed and structured a system to do our work properly and effectively, so now we are ready and willing to share our knowledge with other organizations.

SOME NUMBERS… EVERY YEAR…

• We coordinate directly between 8 and 10 new Erasmus Plus projects in the field of Youth / Adult Education / Sport and these numbers are steadily growing;
• We offer more than 60 international training opportunities per year to our educational staff;
• We help and support our member organizations to submit projects in every call of the Erasmus Plus Program, and the success rate of the EU projects of our partners’ organizations increases by 15% every year.

STOP AND REFLECT

Now stop for a moment and answer these questions:

• Who can you count on when you have to make decisions related to the development of your organization?
• Who helps you taking the right decisions based on a wide experience in this field?
• How many international opportunities could help your organization to become more sustainable and better structured?

Our offer comes from decades of entrepreneurial and designing experience in the world of non-profit, and it is aimed at organizations and institutions interested in building an International Sector with the goal to work together on the designing and promotion of high quality and impactful European Projects.

Unlike many others, we have developed a professional program that can give life to a solid and profitable partnership, aimed at bringing concrete benefits to your organization, increasing the quality and quantity of projects, and optimizing invested resources.

THE PROJECT DESIGN  PROGRAM

THE CONTEXT

Erasmus+ is a wide program, which started over 30 years ago with intra-European projects to boost internationalization across Europe’s borders. The majority of funding is therefore for European projects or exchanges.

Since 2014, Erasmus+ has expanded the internalization process worldwide. So, the current program is characterized by a strong transnational dimension, supporting projects for cooperation or exchange between Europe and the rest of the world.

We approached the Erasmus Plus Program in 2014, and since then, it has been an exciting and stimulating journey.

We have been able to participate in many youth exchanges, training courses, international mobilities, and long-term projects… and every day we have the opportunity to be engaged in training experiences related to Education, Sport, and Social Entrepreneurship in European projects that are guaranteeing us financial sustainability.

Our first project was approved in 2015, and today we are involved in more than 40 projects due to a gradual and organic increase and growth.

Now we are ready to build our Network, selecting the proper organizations to work with.

WHAT IS THE PROGRAM ABOUT?

Through this program, we are able to share our experience in designing and writing successful project proposals.

We can support you in all the process, from the first design to the final application. We (L’ORMA) will be included in the Project, as well as other organizations that you suggest: a real WIN-WIN collaboration!

ARE YOU SUITABLE FOR OUR PROGRAM?

We want to collaborate only with a specific profile of people/organizations.

So if you:

• Don’t have any experience in the Erasmus Plus Program, but you have a strong project idea you want to develop internationally;
• Believe in another person/organization who you want to involve in your project;
• Are ready to follow all the steps to apply your project.

…you are the right person / organization and we are to cooperate!
