- Date: March 9, 2025
- Location: Paul Constantinescu Philharmonic Ploiești
With the support of Asociația Provident pentru Educație and Provident Financial România, we organized the 4th edition of the charity event "Împreună în Timp," an initiative for single-parent families in Prahova, Dâmbovița, and Ilfov counties. The event took place on March 9, 2025, at the Ploiești Philharmonic.
According to the Invizibilii study, single parents feel enormous time pressure: they're stressed about not spending enough time with their children, yet at the same time need to be fully employed to cover expenses. That's why a support network sustaining the education and harmonious development of children raised by a single parent is essential. This is where we step in.
Through the "Împreună În Timp" program, Asociația POT SĂ AJUT supports single-parent families through three essential pillars:
- quality time together: sociocultural and educational events that give parents and children a safe, accessible environment to reconnect;
- support for talented children: resources that allow them to continue their education and pursue their passions;
- personal development: hands-on workshops, creative activities, support for managing emotions, and strengthening the parent–child relationship.
Beneficiaries: 300 children and parents from single-parent families.
Through the Invizibilii program, we aim to support vulnerable communities through initiatives with real impact. The "Împreună în Timp" event, organized in Ploiești on March 9 by our partners at Asociația Pot Să Ajut, is a new opportunity to bring different generations together and create meaningful moments for single-parent families. Education through art and play, and quality time spent together, not only strengthen the bond between parents and children but also give them a setting where they can feel supported and part of a community that understands and stands by them. Every edition of this event has confirmed how important it is to stand alongside those who often face unseen challenges. Through initiatives like this, we hope to bring extra hope, trust, and support to these families, and every "Împreună în Timp" edition is a step forward in that direction.

The Ploiești edition included a series of surprises and interactive educational activities, designed to encourage parents to spend quality time with their children:
- music: we reconnected through percussion rhythms, together with artist Walter Ghicolescu and the young members of the Dacii Liberi group;
- painting: we created a collective painting of emotions, guided by painter George Tanasă;
- educational resources: we discovered how to spend quality time at home as a family by following the Twinkle Star online courses, through which we learn English and build healthy money habits through playful financial education.
Local young artists also took the stage, and we cheered them on warmly alongside their parents: Alma Lorena, the ballerinas from Scoala de Dans Vogue, and the children from Nucșoara.
