Tämä on tositarina siitä, miten meistä tuli Ombrelo. Ensin oli ajatus. Sitten yksi ihminen. Sitten kaksi. Sitten pieni joukko, joka uskoi samaan suuntaan. Ei ollut varmaa, mitä tästä tulisi. Oli vain tunne, että asioita voisi tehdä toisin – yhdessä. Tänä vuonna Ombrelo täyttää 18 vuotta. Täysi-ikäinen. Mutta tämä ei ole juhlapuhe. Tämä on 12-osainen sarja siitä, miten yhteisö syntyy. Miten ihmiset löytävät toisensa saman varjon alle. Miten kasvu ei ole vain numeroita, vaan luottamusta. Tämä on meidän tarinamme.

This is a true story about how we became Ombrelo. First there was an idea. Then one person. Then two. Then a small group who believed in the same direction. There was no certainty about what this would become. There was only a feeling that things could be done differently – together. This year Ombrelo turns 18. An adult. But this is not a ceremonial speech. This is a 12-part series about how a community is born. How people find each other under the same umbrella. How growth is not just numbers, but trust. This is our story.

Online training coming soon in collaboration with the South Ostrobothnia Summer University
