24/03/2006 Help needed for Ostojic Slavko from Dolovo.Ostojic Slavko, an
old man from Dolovo village, near Pancevo, has been left without half of his home,
at the beginning of this year. Namely, the roof fell down under the pressure of
heavy snow. Now, Slavko and his two cats live in "half a home". Conditions in which
this old man lives are extremely bad. His wife has passed away recently which
makes it much more difficult. Slavko lives without power, essential means for
living. ADRA visited him and delivered him some food, clothes and essential means
for hygiene as temporary aid. However, this is not enough. If Slavko does not get
some permanent aid, he will be left without his home. Therefore, we ask all people
of good will, which are capable to help, to pay their donations to ADRA's account
emphasizing that it is for Ostojic Slavko from Dolovo village.
