Hey! My name is Elsie and I am travelling with 9 other college students to volunteer in Majur, Croatia (on the border with Bosnia and Herzegovina) for one week in June. This area of Croatia was badly affected by the Yugoslav Wars. Many of the men of the village have died or disappeared due to the historic conflicts.

The village I will volunteer in needs to be rebuilt. We will be working with the mayor of the town to assist with repairs, painting, and other manual jobs. With the help of our group from Ireland, we aim to work with the people of the village to instill hope for the future!

All donations will be used for project costs: travel to and within Croatia, food, and work materials.

Thank you so much for donating to this worthwhile opportunity! Both for me and for the other young people who will benefit hugely from giving back this summer.
