According to Serbian Economist, the Serbian independent civic organization KROKODIL has announced the launch of a humanitarian campaign to help the Kapitoshka kindergarten in Bucha (Kyiv region), where children are left without heat and hot meals due to prolonged power outages.
According to the organization, 167 children continue to attend the facility regularly because their parents need to work. KROKODIL notes that during blackouts, children are often forced to spend time in unheated and darkened rooms, and during alarms, in basement rooms.
According to a statement on the KROKODIL website, the goal of the campaign is to raise €12,000 by the end of February to purchase a 30 kW electric generator to meet the basic needs of the kindergarten. The organization also called on businesses, institutions, and the media to support the initiative, and on generator manufacturers and importers to consider providing assistance with equipment.
According to the initiative’s partners in Ukraine, an additional fundraiser has been launched for a generator with a target of 200,000 hryvnia.
KROKODIL (Belgrade) was founded in 2009 and operates as an independent, non-partisan public organization in the field of culture and civic initiatives. Since the beginning of the war, the organization has reported on three humanitarian trips to Ukraine: assistance to the Kharkiv Perinatal Center in 2022, support for internally displaced persons and vulnerable groups in the village of Blyznyuky in 2023, and assistance to civilians in Kherson in 2024.
According to KROKODIL, over four years, the organization has conducted 10 fundraising campaigns and raised around €50,000 with the support of more than 750 individual donors.
