OSCAR’S “CARE-PACKS FOR YOUNG HEROES” CAMPAIGN
Every 150 Polish zł (Euro 35, CND 50) donated to 15 year-old Oscar Oliver’s “Care-Packs for Young Heroes” Campaign, buys one Backpack for a child living in Poland with a life-threatening illness, life-limiting condition or emotional stress, or for children who are refugees in Poland or living in social care.
Each Backpack is filled with art, craft & school supplies, toiletries & cosmetics, toys, games, candy & LEGO.
Oscar will be handing out Backpacks at Fantazja’s next signature event – the Gala Christmas Party for 500 children in-need, on December 18th, at Courtyard by Marriott Warsaw Airport Hotel.
OSCAR’S FLOOD APPEAL
The catastrophic effects of storm Boris in Southern Poland has caused devastating floods, tragic deaths, and the evacuating of thousands of people, who’ve lost everything. Oscar’s Flood Appeal is to help the many children in-need, affected by this natural disaster.
Every 300 Polish zł (Euro 70, CND $100) Oscar raises, sends one relief package, with essential supplies, to the families of children in-need. All donations are received by Oscar’s charity partner, the children’s foundation, Fundacja Dziecięca Fantazja in Warsaw, Poland, who organize everything.
OSCAR’S “SKATING FOR YOUNG HEROES” CAMPAIGN
Oscar is a junior international figure skater and a member of the Polish National team.
Oscar recently won the bronze medal at the Budapest Trophy, Budapest, Hungary, and the silver medal at the Volvo Open Cup, in Riga, Latvia. His next competition will be the Sarajevo Trophy in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina (December, 13-15).
Every time Oscar competes in an international competition, he invites supporters to donate 150 Polish zł (Euro 35, CND 50) to buy a Backpack, filled with supplies for a child in need.
Stay tuned for Oscar’s new children’s charity web platform SKATEPOINT, coming soon.

KIDS FOR KIDS
Oscar’s “Kids for Kids” mission is supported by: The Complete Group of Companies.
“It’s always the innocent children who suffer”, said Oscar. “They are scared and frightened and I want to try and bring a smile to their faces and to show someone cares”. “I’m on a “Kids for Kids” mission and I want to help as many as I can”.
“Through my campaigns I know that even an item as small as a Backpack with small personal gifts can mean so much to others in need”, said Oscar.
We hope that Oscar’s commitment, love and compassion to the children will encourage you to make a donation to support his campaigns.
AIRLINE PARTNERS
Oscar is so grateful for the wonderful support he has received, for his humanitarian campaigns, from his airline partners, CONDOR and AUSTRIAN AIRLINES.
SPIN-OFFS
The publicity generated from Oscar’s campaigns led to Oscar being a guest speaker at churches and schools, which in turn is helping to create a new generation of young “givers”.
Other spin-offs resulting from his actions include; refugee children being provided with new desks, lamps and cupboards so they don’t have to study on the floor; bedding, blankets, sheets and pillows for a refugee center; a children’s day party for refugee children and movie nights for the kids.
Oscar’s campaign also supplied backpacks, with supplies, to 50 refugee children from various countries who arrived at a refugee camp in Poland, after living for many weeks in difficult conditions in a forest in Belarus, before being allowed to cross the border.
Oscar’s “Kids for Kids” attitude to life really works!
