The bachelor's thesis focuses on project activity and its contribution to selected organization in the social sphere. The selected facility is Ledax o.p.s, which ranks among the social services companies with the highest subsidies in the South Bohemian Region and is also a company with a high number of projects implemented. The aim of the thesis was to find out what is the specification of the contribution of the project activity in the implementation of social services for selected facilities in the social field. In the context of the research objective, one research question was identified: What is the contribution of the project to Ledax o.p.s.? The work is divided into two parts. The theoretical part is focused on social services namely, the financing of social services and within this, the project management. The practical part was processed in the form of qualitative research using the method of secondary data analysis, triangulation and interviewing using the technique of semi-structured conversation. In order to achieve the objective of the work, an analysis of the social services provided by the selected company was first carried out. Furthermore, an in-depth analysis of the project activity for the period 2008 to 2018 was prepared, which dealt with the evaluation of data related to the use of subsidies in that period. The company's freely available data and annual reports were used to process this analysis, from which information was drawn for the analysis of the social services provided. Subsequently, semi-structured interviews were conducted with communication partners from the company examined, and from the Regional Office of the South Bohemian Region. These workers are engaged in project activities as part of their work. Research has found that the highest income from subsidy titles for the period 2008 to 2018 were distributed to Ledax o.p.s. from the state budget - the budget of the South Bohemian Region. On the contrary, the least comes from foundations and foundation funds. The funds mainly support the improvement of social care services and personal assistance. The research also found that the main contribution and use of project activity mainly lies in improving the social services provided, which could not be implemented from normal financing. The bachelor thesis identified the specifics, which is the dependency of the company on projects and subsidies, the application for subsidies for projects is actually feasible in both the practical and operational. As additional specifics, I would indicate the cooperation of Ledax o.p.s. with the project office, which is a sister company. This bachelor thesis can be a source of information for social service organisations and their employees engaged in project activities and the use of subsidies. Or it can be an asset and help Ledax o.p.s. to further project activities. |
