More than 360,000 EUR were raised within four hours of the first Telethon in Montenegro. The funds will be allocated for children with cancer that need medical treatment abroad.
The final amount raised is 367,374.2 EUR, almost 1,000 EUR for every day in the year. Over 100 celebrities: actors, singers and sportsmen gathered on 15 February with one goal - to answer citizens' calls on donor number 1511. The price of call was 1 EUR per minute.
Father of little Selena Mandić, Brano Mandić, said that his wife and him donated 100,000 EUR. The citizens helped their daughter go on a medical treatment in USA, and her parents donated the sum that remained after the medical treatment.
All the funds raised during the Telethon will be paid to the Budi human Foundation for medical treatment of children with cancer.
