This year, on Christmas, we made happy 500 children from families where both parents are unemployed with a symbolic financial aid of 5,000 dinars per child. Donations are welcome for families without income in Nova Varoš and Prijepolje, because it is very difficult to find any job in these cities. The mission of the foundation to give help to children in families without any income every Christmas is becoming more and more current in Serbia, where the number of unemployed is growing from year to year instead of decreasing. The number of requests for assistance to qualified children was much higher than the Foundation could grant.
Thanks to the donors who made it possible for the help to reach a number of poor children this year as well, we invite all good people to join the action of the foundation and help at least one child next Christmas.
We would like to thank the Serbian KUD Oplenac from Toronto, which for the third year in a row is giving up space and volunteering for dinner and preparing an art program for the Annual Humanitarian Banquet of the Stara Raška Foundation. This year the banquet will be held on February 25 in Oplenac – 895 Rangeview Road Mississauga.
