On January 25, 2006, Silvia Gašparovičová met representatives of institutions and companies that supported the activities of the First Lady and her foundation Education and Health for Everybody. In the Presidential Palace First Lady welcomed more than twenty distinguished guests whom she thanked for their help and cooperation in carrying out the program of the foundation. She informed them about projects that were during the last year successfully implemented. The most important project is undoubtedly the First Folk Academy in Kežmarok that helped fifteen long-term unemployed disabled women in their reintegration into society.
