The representatives of the Charity organization Serbs for Serbs from Belgrade attended the sanctification of the icons of Saint Sava in the Russian church in Belgrade. Our friends from the International public fund of the unity of Orthodox nations donated 30 icons to SfS. We prepared the icons for the families on Kosovo and Metohija and in Krajina, whom we visited in the scope of the traditional Resurrection action.

For the first time in New York City our Charity organization Serbs for Serbs (SfS) held a very successful “Children are our future Fundraiser” event on Friday, April 27th, at La Pomme lounge in Manhattan. Every donor received bracelet “Children are our future” as our way of saying thank you for supporting this event and “Serbs for Serbs” organization. A total of 161 guests attended the event and the guests donated a total of $4,925. All donations will go to our annual Easter 2012 action (which started on April 28th) in Krajina, Kosovo and Raska regions. A minimum donation of $20 was collected at the door from each guest, however, we are happy to report that many guests donated more than the suggested minimum donation.

The very first Serbs for Serbs fundraiser on West Coast was held on Saturday, April 21 in Los Angeles, California. Tickets were $25/person and included open bar, silent auction and live entertainment. Each donor also received a bracelet that stated “I made a difference”, implying that each $25 ticket they paid will make a difference in the lives of impoverished families. Raffle tickets were also sold for $10 a piece at the admission. Close to 100 people attended this event and together we raised net $5,000.
