According to Nedim Krivdić, president of the association, the list of beneficiaries was created in collaboration with the Center for Social Work, without considering national or religious affiliation.

"In addition to daily meals, we provided various donations to our beneficiaries and fellow citizens, distributing a total of 15 tons of food to 150 households," Krivdić told "Nezavisne novine."

Additionally, last year they implemented the "Snacks" project together with the "Pomozi.ba" Association from Sarajevo, through which they secured 15,000 snacks for 93 socially disadvantaged students in the Kozarska Dubica area.

They also provided new school bags and supplies for 110 first-grade students and distributed five tons of clothing to both the youngest and the oldest citizens.

Throughout the year, they carried out three fundraising campaigns via a humanitarian phone line to support the medical treatment of fellow citizens.

"We also conducted actions in Africa and Asia, where, thanks to our donors, we built four wells, donated clothing and footwear, and purchased 39 animals," said Krivdić.

During the Eid holiday, they distributed 3,000 pieces of baklava, flowers, and gift packages. Throughout the year, they also renovated a children’s playground and a youth center. They delighted 500 children with New Year's gift packages.

According to Krivdić, they established numerous partnerships with institutions and organizations and also supported other associations.
