Belgrade Marathon |
|
Dr. Vladimir
Aleksic, PhD, who lives in London for the last seven years has
initiated a donor humanitarian action dedicated to the
project 'Support to Education of Roma Children''. He is
going to participate in Belgrade marathon on 19 April 2008
and collect donor funds for the mentioned project that NSHC
implements voluntarily for four years. Andrej Jonovic and
Graeme Semon from London have joined Vladimir in this
initiative. About his motives Vladimir says: ''Through
participation in Belgrade marathon and through initiation of
this humanitarian action I want to contribute to awareness
raising in our society about the need for this kind of
individual activities. Various humanitarian projects can be
supported through similar actions, which is already a common
thing abroad. I also believe that making a connection
between large sport manifestations, such as Belgrade
marathon, and donor humanitarian actions, is an ideal
opportunity to collect donations and to inform people about
current problems in a society and ways for their solving.
With this initiative I want to contribute to the
efforts of
NSHC volunteers to give a chance to poor Roma children so
they could gain a minimum of knowledge and skills needed for
their independent living in the future.'
If you want to
support this initiative,
please contact us.

World Roma Day |
|
Together with
Center for Youth Work, NSHC's volunteers have organized
street action on the occasion of the World Roma Day. This
day was established in 1971 in order to attract public
attention to the difficult position of Roma, and to give
incentive to fight against segregation and discrimination of
this people. Street action was organized in the center of
Novi Sad, through creative workshops and game playing, in
which both Roma and non-Roma children have participated.
With this action we wanted to send out the message that
differences between people are not important, and also to
promote inclusive approach in everyday wok with children.
The action was supported by ''Green House'' and ''BB Minaqua
A.D.''. |
