Dear friends,

During 2014 Foundation Ana and Vlade Divac raised 1.8 million EUR from over 15,000 individual donors, many companies and bilateral donors for flood relief project. We have also become partner of EU for flood relief project and with all this support managed to implement following projects: 

1. Refurbishing of two kindergartens and boiler room for additional two kindergartens damaged in floods – better conditions for over 1,000 children.

2. Renovation and equipping of 6 primary schools – better conditions for over 1,000 pupils.

3. Renovation and equipping of Daily Care Center for youth with disabilities and Daily center for people with Palsy in Obrenovac. Both institution have over 100 beneficiaries.

4. Reconstruction of 110 family houses – support for over 500 beneficiaries.

5. Provided economy grants for 127 families – over 600 beneficiaries

6. Reconstruction of 15 sport courts, library, etc.

Our project on Globalgiving.org raised $15,150 with support from 87 donors. All of these funds have been used for provision of support in building material to individuals. Thanking to all of you, our friends, four families received building material and have done reconstruction of their houses.

This year we will continue with provision of assistance to vulnerable families in flooded areas. Our focus has changed and this year we will be more oriented on provision of economical support and revitalization of the agriculture.

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.

Our project on Globalgiving.org raised $14,850 with support from 81 individuals. Thanks to those donations, two more families got newly renovated houses before winter.

We are continuously helping the most vulnerable families and we still need your support. At this moment, the urgent need is refurnishing of the reconstructed houses.

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

We are grateful for your support!

Flood-Damaged Home
Flood-Damaged Home

Two months after natural disaster, damage in flooded areas is measuring with billions of dollars. Immediately after the floods, the Ana and Vlade Divac Foundation has started the project “Let’s All help”. The main goal of this project is to help people rebuild their life after this natural disaster. Affected families have lost everything, and are being accommodated in collective centers.

Many individuals, corporate donors, and partners have supported Foundation, and help us raise more than half a million dollars. In June 2014, we have started with reconstruction of the objects in the flooded areas, and with support to the flooded households:

  • Reconstruction of two kindergartens (total value of construction works is 160.000$)
  • Reconstruction of five elementary schools (total value of construction works is 190.000$)
  • Reconstruction of 33 family houses through donation of building material in the amount of 6.000$ per house (total value of construction works is 198.000$)
  • Allocation of 50 economic grants to affected families (total value 270.000 $)

Our project on Globalgiving.org raised 10.280$ with support of 60 individuals. At this moment, the most urgent need is still reconstruction of family houses. With winter approaching soon, we need all your assistance to help displaced families to return to their homes and help them to reconstruct houses before the winter period.

Remaining funds needed to reach our goal and gather funds for reconstruction of 10 houses are $49.820. We invite you to join us, to share this story with you family and friends and help us to achieve our goal that all of us can be proud of.

Thank you for your support!
