Caritas raises €63,000 for poorest families

Author: Hari Alfeo

ZAGREB, 15 Dec (Hina) - HRK 472,000 (€63,000) has been raised in money in one month as part of the Caritas charity's For 1,000 Joys programme, Caritas director Tomislav Glavnik said on Thursday, adding that the Croatia national football team's 2022 World Cup wins have also indirectly helped the poorest families in the country.

The programme was launched 20 years ago to collect concrete help for the poorest families in Croatia, which have a hard time surviving, fighting illness and unemployment.

"Besides material goods, we have also received monetary gifts, HRK 172,000 from individuals... and HRK 300,000 from legal entities," Glavnik told the press.

For 1,000 Joys is an attempt to develop social sensitivity and solidarity towards families in need and to motivate Caritas' parishes and archdioceses as well as companies and enterprises in Croatia.
