COVID19 PERIOD
When your your donation has made every one in the slums fly with you through this jouney of the Pandemic, you can easly see imaginating tears from the eyes of the lost hope mum getting a bag of posho to feed her children. Many men ran away and children left in houses alone because of fear that they can't afford to look after them during the pandemic. it has been you who has not feared or run away in this pandemic .thank you for walking every step of the journey, to make every one feel safe and less worried on what to feed the valnurable in the slums of Kosovo.
