Intern with a foundation that is the sole charity organization in Kosovo supporting mainly arts and music organizations and underprivileged parts of society in Kosovo. The charity organization under the patronage of Dua Lipa, aims to empower vulnerable communities through music and the arts.
So far, the foundation has supported 15 organizations, operating in culture, education, social inclusion and mental health. Sunny Hill Foundation is dedicated to creating and promoting social equality in parts of society that have never enjoyed such benefits. The foundation wants to give people, groups and communities the chance to take control of their lives before and unlock their potential.
In addition, this organization is creating the biggest music and arts hub in the Western Balkan region in cooperation with municipality of Prishtina, Kosovo. After many years, the Palace of Youth and Sports in Prishtina was given back to its youth in August of 2019. The Sunny Hill Foundation signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the municipality of Prishtina to develop the Sunny Hill Music Academy to provide music production and performance to Kosovo’s youth. SHF hopes to bring a community of creatives together where they can use the resources in the hub for rehearsal studios, recording studios and performance spaces for live audiences. Sunny Hill Foundation is committed to bring to life the biggest music and art hub in the region.
The Sunny Hill Festival is an international music festival of the highest standards, one that puts Prishtina, Kosovo on the festival map as a not-to-be missed musical and cultural destination, in a country that loves music and knows how to have fun. In addition, the proceeds of the Sunny Hill Festival support the activities of the Sunny Hill Foundation.

“The Sunny Hill Foundation’s mission is simple. With knowledge of our country, and through hard work, we aim to be a helping-hand for the most vulnerable in our community. We want to strengthen democratic values, promote international cooperation, and advance human achievement through music and arts activities. We aim to help our community to help itself. We believe in the people of Kosovo, they have the vision to see what is needed, the creativity to overcome problems and the hard work to make a change in their society. We will give a helping hand to our community, by supporting groups and projects that make a direct improvement to people’s lives. We will fund work that unlocks the passion and potential of Kosovars and we will provide a space for young talents to unleash their creativity in music and arts. We will only fund NGOs, ensuring that every cent is used to help communities to help themselves. We will bring together our resources and our expertise to bring forth the vision and hard work of bright-minded people across Kosovo to fund their efforts in order to bring opportunities.”
