Monthly Report for June Dear friends and donors, Charity organization Serbs for Serbs registered in the state of Illinois in United States in Jun 2010 by the group of the Serbian youth. Charity organization Serbs for Serbs is a 501(c)(3) notfor-profit profit charitable organization. Donation is tax-deductible deductible to the extent followed by the law. On 30th September, 2011 we finally nally got the letter from department of the treasury (IRS) S) with tax exempt 501(c)3 approval. All donations to our organization donated from June 16, 2010 are tax deductible under section 170 of the Code. We are also qualified to receive tax deductible bequests, devises, transfers of gifts under section 2055, 21 2106 or 2522 of the Code.

About Us The mission of Charity organization Serbs for Serbs is to affect on consciousness of Americans, Serbs and their friends through planned projects, social and humanitarian activities in order to develop and foster better society for future generations and provide aid for underprivileged families in need. Although there are many humanitarian organizations and associations, help often doesn't reach the most jeopardized. Due to unnecessary administration, missing informationn and slow decision making, the delivery of aid arrives too late to the final consumers, or not at all. It is a sad and embarrassing, but true fact that more than 18.000 children daily die around the world because of starvation and malnutrition. ion. There, amo among us, the blind and deaf. We are witnesses of the bad demographic situation of our nation, decreasing natality, increasing number of singles, abortions, accelerated aging of

www.serbsforserbs.org 2014 the population and generally bad economic condition of the households in Serbia, Republic of Srpska and other countries in the Balkan. An average couple has "fallen" on one child. Analysts warn that Serbs will become a minority in its own country in the following century if the nation, individuals and government don't wake up from thee nescient in which they've fallen! On the other hand, nobody is talking about the families with many children which grieve by living in bitter poverty. Occupied by their everyday struggle for survival, they are being humbly in their desire for implementing ng rights which belong to them. Their life stories, fears and problems are identical, but almost invisible and unheard in order to gain the attention of the public, media and even state. That's why the idea of the Charity organization Serbs for Serbs arose. The organization rganization was formed by a group of young and trustful people, who are united by the common vision of helping families blessed by many children and who are aware of the fact that even a small help means a lot for those who don't live in a material excess. We are united by the humane idea to help the poorest part of the Serbian nation. Charity organization Serbs for Serbs try to revive the spiritless energy of the Serbian Diaspora which would be able to reinforce people of Serbian heritage as well as all good people throughout the world with minimal, but bu constant monthly donations. We hope and believe that there is also a grain of doing good and that you will join us in the endless e struggle against poverty. God bless and save all Serbian families with many children and our honored donors who participate in the noble effort to return smile on children faces.

CHILDREN ARE OUR FUTURE!

Monthly Report for June Ambitions

Our mission The mission of Charity organization Serbs for Serbs is to affect on consciousness of Serbian people through our projects and humanitarian activities, in order to develop better society for future generations. Why Serbs for Serbs? We wanted to alleviate impaired spirit of Serbian people in togetherness and brotherhood help through humanitarian work and social aid. Who do we help? We help Serbian families who live in the Balkans, have five or more children and live in terrible poverty. Under terrible poverty we define absence of one or more basic factors required for living: food, clothes, shoes, and safe space for living.

www.serbsforserbs.org 2014 Who do we need in organization? We need members and donors that will secure financial stability through supporting our programs and activities in the future. Donors may join our daily activities within the organization in order to coordinate our work better. We also need volunteers ready to donate several hours per week for actual work within the organization. Activities of volunteers and their specific tasks would be determined by the required projects and their personal interest. From that group of volunteers we would look for future leaders of organization.

How to donate? 1. PayPal donation: szsamerika@gmail.com 2. Direct Deposit to Wells Fargo Bank account Please email us at: szsamerika@gmail.com 3.

Why do we help? We believe that there is a basic need for one human (or a group) to help others in distress. A help is not only human virtue but also a Christian responsibility. By focusing our help on families with many children, we directly affect on their stirring toward becoming independent from socialdependable government programs.

Family Kovacevic with refrigerator and freezer President of the Charity organization Serbs for Serbs Mr. Igor Rasula was a guest on Wednesday, June 4 in the Radio Television of Serbia broadcast “Serbia on call”, whose program is aimed to the Serbian Diaspora, and is broadcasted on the satellite. Serbs for Serbs presented their previous work and numerous activities during the disastrous floods which hit Serbia and the Republic of Srpska. …………………………………………………………

HELP FOR THE ENDANGERED THROUGH FOOTBALL

Family Kovacevic consists of father Milos (71), mother Gordana (62) and sons Zoran (37) and Dragan (29) who temporarily live in Zeleznik, Belgrade. We wish the fast return to the family, and the restoration of their home, and at the same time, we wish to thank the organizers of the tournament who provided the donation and conducted action on the field in cooperation with our volunteers.

On the 6th Memorial tournament in mini football “Nemanja Miljanic-Pile”, which was traditionally held from 19th to 25th of May on the fields of the elementary school “Nadezda Petrovic” in New Belgrade, Charity organization Serbs for Serbs collected charity help for the families hit by floods. In a seven-day time of the tournament we collected 48.980 dinars from the donor boxes and by selling T-shirts. On the suggestion of the organizer of the tournament, we used the money for an urgent help to family Kovacevic from the area near Obrenovac (a refrigerator and a freezer in the amount of 48.980 dinars), whose house is completely submerged and the things within it are destroyed.

HELP TO FAMILY JOVANOVIC FROM KLADUROVO

Members of the Charity organization Serbs for Serbs visited and helped at the beginning of June a six-member family Jovanovic from the village Kladurovo near Petrovac on Mlava. The help consisted in four goats and two young goats. The total amount of the help was 10.000 dinars and 165 EUR.

Members of family Jovanovic are parents Zoran and Svetlana and the children Nikola (14), Stefan (11), Ivana (7) and the youngest Marina who is a year old. A devastating fact is that the family doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have electricity in its home (therefore, no refrigerator, freezer...) nor water (and therefore, no bathroom nor the washing machine)!

Monthly Report for June SFS DELIVERED COMPUTER TO JELENA MIRJANIC

While many of her peers wish for beautiful clothing, footwear and expensive mobile phones, a fourteen-yearold Jelena Mirjanic from the village Gornji Podgradci near Gradiska wants to enroll in high school. The hard-working girl is forced to do all the housework. She lost her mom when she was five years old, and since then she was fighting for a better life with her father Novak.

www.serbsforserbs.org 2014 Novak is having a hard time, because he cannot help his daughter. The only income is his pension in the amount of 200 KM, half of which is being spent on a rent. They are renting for nearly ten years. While he was able to work, Novak dreamed of building a house in which his daughter would have her room.

Jelena's dream is to go to school. She has always wanted to help people, so she would like to go into medical high school, and then to law school. Jelena is aware of the fact that her schooling would represent additional expense for them. Above all, is missing her mother every day.

At the beginning of June representatives of the Charity organization Serbs for Serbs delivered modest donation to Jelena Mirjanic â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a lap top gained from the donor of the organization from Sweeden.

Jelena's teacher Svjetlana Vukicevic points out that Jelena is a great child. Jelena is doing well at school although she has changed several schools due to frequent moves with her father. Her classmates is supporting her, and she is studying regularly. When she was just ten years old, the father become an invalid after an accident in the forest. The girl realized that many things depend upon her, so she started working hard. After the chores, she would study hard and gained all the best marks at school.

Novak Mirjanic says he lost faith that anyone would help him and his daughter. They appealed to Gradiska municipality, but no one helped them although he fought during the war.

Monthly Report for June SERBS FOR SERBS ACTIVE IN MONTENEGRO

Members of the Charity organization Serbs for Serbs visited Montenegro from June 21st to 24th because of the completion of the house for family Dragojevic from Martinic near Podgorica. It is the first big project of the Charity organization Serbs for Serbs in Montenegro, and it was conducted in cooperation with Ostrog monastery. Building of the house coasted 15.000 EUR. The works are nearly finished. The archbishop of Montenegro and Littoral Amfilohije welcomed the members of the organization, in which we presented our activities and future plans. Apart from family Dragojevic, we visited two other families and organized a meeting with people who will work on the registration of the organization in Montenegro.

www.serbsforserbs.org 2014 We started our visit on Saturday, June 21. Near the Serbian-Montenegro border we visited Kumanica monastery, and our next stop was Dajbabe monastery. In both monasteries we were warmly welcomed.

In the evening hours we arrived at Ostrog, and met father Matej who was running the project. St. Vasilije Ostroski is the protector and slava of the organization Serbs for Serbs. Next to his remains a prayer was prayed for all the members and donors of the organization and for our future work, which represents special honor.

Serbs for Serbs with archbishop Amfilohije

The aims of the action in Montenegro were: 1) visit to family Dragojevic from Martinic; 2) visiting two other families; 3) reception with archbishop Amfilohije; 4) agreement with the brotherhood of the Ostrog monastery on future cooperation and projects; 5) gathering of new people who will register the organization in Montenegro and 6) visit to several monasteries in Montenegro. All the aims were successfully fulfilled.

After that, archbishop Amfilohije welcomed us. In the short conversation we presented previous activities of our organization and future plans, with special emphasis on Montenegro. We were talking about several families which live in difficult conditions, and we were astonished that the archbishop had information in every household. We were encouraged by his wisdom. After delivering the annual report of our organization and the promise to be present in a greater extent in Montenegro, we went to sleep along with several hundreds of other pilgrims.

The Sunday commenced with the liturgy and lunch. Before lunch we had another opportunity to talk with archbishop Amfilohije and get to know the status of Serbian Orthodox Church in Southern and Middle America where the archbishop Amfilohije is administering until the appointment of new archbishop.

During the lunch we were listening to young minstrels from the artistic society of the Cathedral of the Resurrection of Christ from Podgorica. Our members from Podgorica and Herceg Novi joined us during the lunch. The first family we visited during the day was family Dragojevic. There were very happy to meet us, and the mother introduced us to her children as brothers and sisters. The house is not finished yet, because the exterior facade and some inner works remain unfinished. We have already collected the money for equipping the house.

New house has the surface of 155m2 in a single level and 4 rooms. Vast part of the material was bought at low prices thanks to father Matej who engaged personally and visited the warehouses. We owe special thank to our friends from Budva who donated bathroom equipment and tiles. Predrag Dragojevic performed much of the work himself or organized volunteers.

After visiting the new house, we went into the old one which is in a terrible condition for a family with five children. The house is over 150 years old, and the beams in the roof and floorboards are cracked. The things in the house are unusable, and the family will get new ones for the new house.

In our conversation with Predrag we found out that he has about 0.5 acres, and a forest shared with his brother and father, which is not enough to sustain three families. He is renting the forests and logging, but due to the problems with payment he is forced to lend money. Ostrog monastery helped a lot in paying off the debts, but it takes a lot to sustain the family and avoid new debts. In order to earn extra money, Predrag is occasionally working for a wage. They recently received a cow, and now they have milk, kaymak and cheese. Charity organization Serbs for Serbs www.serbsforserbs.org PO Box 34206, Chicago, IL 60634 Phone: +1-312-85-SERBS

The parents asked how to repay, and our answer was that the help we provided should be the stimulus for further struggle to provide the decent life for their children and to make sure that the new house is always clean. The youngest members of the family will perhaps be in a position to help someone else in the future.

The family is a refugee one, from the village Dasinovac near Decane on Kosovo and Metohija. They will need to leave the house in which they currently live soon. Their only income is a social benefit in the amount of 122 EUR once in three months! The Ostrog monastery is considering the housing of this and another family from the nearby building. The family stated they could use a washing machine and a refrigerator. The next family we visited was family Dasic, which lives near family Dragojevic. The family consists of father Zelimir, mother Lidija and their nine children â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Srecko (18), Sasa (16), Sanja (15), Sandra (14), Stefan (11), Bojana (10), Mladena (9), Bozidar (4) and Svetlana, who is in treatment in Bijela due to disabilities and mental health problems. The atmosphere in the house is very gloomy.

Monthly Report for June Father Matej informed us about the terrible condition in which the Serbian refugees from Kosovo and Metohija live in Montenegro, which is discriminating them. The Serbian refugees have no rights, especially because they cannot gain Montenegro citizenship, which is a precursor for exercising rights. The Serbs don't get the citizenship because there is a presumption they will vote against the current political forces. The reality of the Serbian refugees are refugee centers, abandoned factories, the lack of citizenship, the lack of jobs, no social benefit, and the problems which are connected to the above – poverty, sickness and hopelessness.

www.serbsforserbs.org 2014 shouldn't be sold. Although the family is in a difficult condition, they are not giving up, which brings us new strength to continue with our work. The family needs a refrigerator. By visiting these families we finished “operating” part of action in Montenegro after which we continued visiting the monasteries in Montenegro. The first monastery we visited was the Cetinje monastery where we were warmly welcomed and got the opportunity to see one of the richest treasury of Serbian Orthodox Church. After that we visited beautiful monasteries Gradiste and Praskvice near Petrovac and Budva on the seaside. In Gradiste we met the prior with whom we spoke about the monastery, visitors and our organization, and we even spent the night in Praskvice. It was a great honor to meet the priesthood in this area, and to have all the doors widely opened.

The last family we visited was a refugee family Milic which we have helped several times before, primarily by delivering groceries and hygiene. The family was forced to leave Djakovica 1999 with six children (the oldest daughter is married and has three children). Unfortunately, since our last visit the situation worsened. The father due to the respiration problems must be attached to the inhaler for 15 hours per day. A new problem arise – the cut of electricity due to the debts. The debt is about 6.200 EUR, and since they live in a refugee center, the bills weren't arriving for a long time, so it is not clear who should pay them. The father now has to spend the 15 hours per day at his relatives' place in another part of the city. It is only making the situation harder. Without the church this family wouldn't have survived. Thanks to the public kitchen at the Cathedral of the Resurrection of Christ they can count on warm meals every day.

As far as Montenegro is concerned, it was an area with the least of our activities, but it should change in the future. The organization should be registered soon and continue helping the Serbian families with many children.

The reason for our visit was the help of Ostrog monastery in the form of donation of 400 EUR for paying part of the debt for electricity in order to bring the electricity back. The family doesn't want to sell their land on Kosovo and Metohija, because the land

Our presence in the area from which some of the greatest Serbian minds in history originated is very important, especially because, unfortunately, the Serbian people is having troubles in keeping its identity and existence.

Monthly Report for June BATHROOM FOR FAMILY MARKOVIC FROM GORNJI MILANOVAC

www.serbsforserbs.org 2014 The oldest among the children is a son Danilo (16), who attends the Gastronomy-Touristic school in Vrnjacka Banja, where he lives in a dormitory, and comes to Drenova twice a month during the weekend. He has a financial help in the amount of 5.000 dinars. Older daughter Marija (11) and younger Sofija (9) are walking several dozens of km from their home to school in Takovo and vice versa. The youngest Dimitrije is three years old.

Members of the Charity organization Serbs for Serbs visited on June 26 family Markovic from the village Drenova near Gornji Milanovac. We built a bathroom for family Markovic from the money collected within the project “Trojka iz bloka” held on May 10 in Gornji Milanovac. The Markovic’s house didn’t have sewerage system, so we built cesspit apart from the bathroom. Thanks to the large number of sponsors and donors in both money and material, new PVC windows were placed on the house, and the terrace was concreted.

Family Markovic consists of six members. Mother Natalija lost her husband, and the children lost their father almost a year ago. He was an artisan who was building bathrooms.

Monthly Report for June MOTOCULTIVATOR FOR FAMILY COSOVIC FROM PALE

Four years ago Charity organization Serbs for Serbs from the Republic of Srpska helped family Mandic – children Aleksandar, Aleksandra and Jelena from Pale, when we introduced water into the house and equipped the attic. It was right after the children and their mother Snjezana moved into their grandfather’s house, fleeing from the molesting of their father. Since we last met, Snjezana married again and gave birth to a girl. Family Mandic (now Cosovic) is still living in the same attic, which was rearranged by Snjezana’s husband. They built a barn for the goats. They are farming around the house, and in the rented land, and they are selling the vegetables they grow.

Older children are helping in agriculture, while the parents are gathering scrap iron as a contribution to the family budget. Family Cosovic has a lot of land in the village, but they don’t have the necessary appliances to

www.serbsforserbs.org 2014 grow it. That was the reason why Snjezana asked us to help them in buying a motocultivator.

In mid-May, during the seedtime we weren’t able to buy them a motocultivator, but we appealed to Kojo Trifkovic, to whom we bought a motocultivator earlier, to help family Cosovic. He was glad to help, and thus he proved that we all make a big family, in which the one who needed help yesterday is today helping others.

Thanks to the great number of donors and friends of our organization worldwide, the action of helping family Cosovic was successfully finished in mid-June, when an used motocultivator was delivered to their household. The total value of motocultivator was 2.500 KM. Thanks to that donation the parents can plan serious work to provide the needs of their children.
