►To whom will we hand over the collected material aid?
Civic Association ETP Slovakia - Center for Sustainable Development has been supporting the vulnerable for almost 25 years groups and individuals in eastern Slovakia. The mission of ETP Slovakia is the education and development of people, organizations and communities towards civil society and the dissemination of sustainable development ideas. They accompany clients from cradle to career, bridging communities and educating in the understanding of generational poverty. Together they form complex solutions that help individuals and families from poverty to self-sufficiency.

The SPLETINIA Center was founded in May 2023 as an informal group of volunteers who help people in the frontline areas of Ukraine directly exposed to the fury of war. In the center, Ukrainians and Slovaks meet, where they primarily knit camouflage nets, sew underwear for seriously injured people (soldiers and civilians) in frontline areas, or according to seasonal needs, make trench candles or knit warm socks for hospitals from donated wool. They also hold fundraisers for the purchase of material, or for the direct purchase of medicines and medical supplies for medics in Ukraine. www.spletinia.sk
