AWAY Serbia March

 

TACC recently donated £10,000 to the Ecumenical Humanitarian Organisation (EHO) in Serbia during the recent Serbia v Scotland match. TACC Ambassadors Jim Hart and Dorothy Wilson were on hand to present the donation and have a wee party for the children at the same time.

 

“EHO offer support to all forms of ethnic groups, and there are lots in Serbia, and there are no discrimination/preferences.  Most of their clients come to EHO via word of mouth - there is no, or little, publicity about their service.  Overall they have about 500 volunteers involved in a wide variety of functions in addition to the salaried staff, some of whom we met.  Due to the diversity of the work they undertake, they are closely involved with a wide variety of agencies - immigration, hospitals, education, social welfare, housing etc. but at the same time they also have to overcome the political and administrative barriers that are ever present in Serbia currently.
