The final thesis focuses on the Czech politician, teacher, writer and publicist Vojta Beneš, the brother of the second Czechoslovak president Edvard Beneš. The 73 years of his life belonged to the epoch that brought two world wars and the fundamental changes in the history of our country. We can find two major efforts in Vojta Beneš's life. Dedicated work for his homeland and help the Czechoslovak child. Beneš was an ardent nationalist in the best sense and subordinated all his life to the thought of independent, humanist and democratic state. He helped in its formation in 1918 as an active leader of the anti-Austrian resistance among our countrymen in America, fought to defend our country in 1938 and later in 1948, when his mother country was threatened by two totalitarian regimes. The second theme of Vojta Beneš's life, that this thesis deals with, is a quality education and social support of the Czechoslovak children, that he performed in his original profession, later in the service of high educational institutions in our country and also in the organizations, that provided social care to the people in need.
