Ohridska Banka Societe Generale donated funds to support the group of young fencers with Down syndrome who, several years in a row, are successfully practicing this sport in the Fencing Club Eskrim.

By donating 100,000 MKD (app. 1,600 EUR), Ohridska Banka will help to improve the training conditions for the young fencers, but also will increase the public awareness on the needs and importance of social inclusion of the people with Down syndrome.

This donation by Ohridska Banka came as a result of participation of thirty four Bank employees on the this year’s Skopje Marathon, who devoted their participation in the 5 km race to the children with Down syndrome who practice in the Fencing Club Eskrim.
