– Educate and promote equality and equal opportunities between the European youth citizens,
– Enhance the environmental consciousness of the youth,
– Help the youth easily adjust to the society,

We have European Solidarity Corps Quality Label as Support Organisation.
Make it Happen is currently running 2 projects as a beneficiary:
– ‘I Dream Green’ is a Youth Exchange project which aims to offer participants an understanding of environmental sustainability, climate crisis, and consequences on the planet caused by waste in natural environments.
– ‘CATS – Caring Actions Towards Strays’ is a Solidarity Project. The project aims to improve the life conditions of stray cats in Limassol, and to help reduce the littering caused by people in cat colonies. To achieve our aims we are installing feeding stations (for food and water) for the stray cats of Limassol, and we are organising activities to educate people on how to coexist with stray cats in a clean community. We hope that this Solidarity Project will help everyone understand that cats are part of this island and we should treat them with care and respect.
