The document discusses plans to create a new library in a town with a population of 150,000 where over 60% are youth but there is only one public library with 60 reading places. Students started an e-petition called "We need a new library" which led to the creation of Eventor HUB, a community space for youth that has received funding and awards. Eventor HUB aims to develop their reading corner into a new public library to address the lack of opportunities for youth.

And OpportunityCreators

3. Find a problem and tackle it
…
1. Lack of opportunities for youth &
students.
2. Socialist- era educational system and
libraries.
3. Neglected youth potential.
… this is not all

4. We need a new library!
this is how an e-petition it’s named by high school students
of our town.
• A town with a population around 150.000
• More than 60% of this population youth.
• 1 public university with +5000 students.
• 5 public high schools
not counting private colleges and schools…
Just 1 public library with just 60 reading
places…
How it looks…?

our HUB; they give the SPIRIT.

what makes it beautiful. Community of our

16. It’s not about the money…
So, if you really love and you feel your Big Idea,
start to separate it on few pieces (small
projects) and very soon you will have the full
puzzle, the real success is on learning by
doing, we started with a 2200€ euro seed
fund then just after 5 months we raised it on
+50.000€.

17. If you want to help and empower your
community:
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE
• NO ‘expert’ bullsh*it
• Their idea matters, not yours
• Think outside of the CIRCLE
