Visiting Obrenovac

Dear friends,

In 2015 flood relief project was the priority for our Foundation and during previous 10 months we continued with providing assistance to vulnerable citizens in Obrenovac, Serbia.

In mid-February  the Foundation signed donation agreement with 17 families in Obrenovac. These families will receive building material for the reconstruction of their houses in March, and hopefully will finish reconstruction of their houses during this spring.  Mast - Jägermeister SE company and many individual donors helped us to provide material for the reconstruction of houses for those vulnerable families.

We provided economic grants for 127 families who are now in position to earn for living, after loosing their properties and family businesses in the floods.

During previous 10 months we managed to:

·     reconstruct  3 kindergartens

·     reconstruct  6 elementary schools

·     reconstruct almost 100 family homes

·     reconstruct two centers for children with disabilities in Obrenovac

·     reconstruct 13 basketball fields in Obrenovac and

·     allocate 127 economic grants

With support of thousands individual donors, socially responsible companies and organizations from all over the world, we raised over 1,8 million dollars for all of these projects.

We are grateful for your support!

Dear friends,

We are proud to share acheived results with you. Seven months after the floods, Ana and Vlade Divac Foundation managed to reconstruct:

  • 3 kindergartens
  • 6 elementary schools
  • almost 100 family homes
  • two centers for children with disabilities in Obrenovac
  • 15 basketball fields in Obrenovac and
  • allocate over 120 economic grants

Until now, with support of thousands of individual donors, socially responsible companies and organizations, we raised over 1,8 million dollars for all of these projects.

Winter is here and needs of the families in flooded ares are still tremendous. Just in two collective centers in Obrenovac, is still over 400 persons accommodated and estimation is that 700 family houses are in need for reconstruction.

We are continuously helping the most vulnerable families and we still need your support. In Obrenovac, which is the most affected municipality, we heleped 55 families to reconstruct their houses.

At this moment, the urgent need is refurnishing of the reconstructed houses. Families do not have beds,  tables or chairs and their houses are completely empty.

We invite you to join us and help us raise the funds for this worthy cause.

You can donate by sending SMS with text GIVE 18596 to 80088 (works only for US mobile phones).

Share this story with your family and friends and help families to return to their homes before winter.

 

We are grateful for your support!
