Let's look back at the Philanthropy Know-How 2017 conference held by Catalyst Balkans and the Trag Foundation on May 9-10 in Belgrade. Among the 60 participant organizations actively engaged in this sector in Serbia was the Vesti Editorial Board which presented its Humanitarni most (Humanitarian Bridge) campaign.

Only in 2016, Catalyst recorded 720 articles in Vesti, stories about people who needed help and people with great hearts who helped them. For years, Vesti has been successfully conecting people in need with their benefactors. Last year, thanks to the Vesti Editorial Board, we witnessed the case of a 2-year-old Sofija Nikolić who was born with a condition of split trachea and esophagus, and who recovered after the surgery in Paris. Vesti Editorial Board also promised to keep us informed on the case of Teodora Vranješević from Kragujevac, for whose medical treatment 350,000 EUR were raised in no time.

The Humanitarian Bridge was founded in 1992 on the initiative of Dušan Vidaković, the president of the Nida Verlag Company. We congratulate them for their success and hope to read about more happy-endings!
