By means of selection procedures, the foundation discovers gifted children that lack possibilities for development of their talent, skills or interests. The project seeks material help for them and supports their cultural, sporting and educational needs in a complex way. Every year, dozens of children from all 14 regions in the Czech Republic can, thanks to Plaváček, devote their time to the development of their talent. The Plaváček children can perform in public, and thus gain new experience. Plaváček opens doors for young artists, sportsmen, scientists and all children, whose skills are being suppressed for financial reasons.

It was registered in 1969 and authorized two years later. During the totalitarian regime, it issued uncensored literature and the bulletin Jazz devoted to modern art and philosophy. The edition Situace offered space to Czech artists that were not allowed to exhibit their work. In 1984, the organization was pursued for its independent activities, and in 1986, its leaders were imprisoned. There arose a huge wave of protest all over the world against the trial procedure. After his release from prison, Karel Srp, a founding member of the Jazz section, established yet another cultural organization, Artforum. After November 1989, the Jazz section was rehabilitated, with both organizations officially merging into one, which remains active until today.
