The refurbishment of the crisis centre for mothers, victims of violence and their children is the most visible investment into the project. It has been accomplished through the grant of Foundation Granvia; the photos taken before and after speak a million words.

The replacement of radiators, old windows, and sanitary equipment as well as beds, enabled the unit capacity increase by three hundred percent. The building given to the project leaders by the Town was also painted and the visible changes inspired other city representatives and the local community, to help with their own bit. Many brought unused furniture, kitchen equipment or books to decorate the common areas. Mothers with children thus found their refuge in decent and clean premises, in the lap of a beautiful small town surrounded by pristine nature offering solace and peace, albeit temporarily. The average stay of a client is 6 months. Under the supervision of the professional social workers, they can gain energy for a new beginning. Project Patron Mia Bajáková, helped the workers of CSS Krupina to mediate the cooperation with the Civic association, which provides the financial management courses. Such course is beneficiary especially for clients with lower level od education or lack of experience in finance. The project Protect Work got actively involved in the search of the suitable course.

Mia Bajáková: ,,Magical Krupina has its magical people. They are the employees and volunteers of the crisis centre, who undertook a demanding task of the refurbishing. I believe that the newly furnished environment will bring at least a small consolation to those, who will stay there. I strongly believe and hope that no one will have to remain there for too long and that the new beginning is close.‘‘
