PRISTINA-
On 12th August, KFOR hosted, at Camp Film City, the "Charity Pizza” event for
people with special needs living in the Community House of Decan/Decani.
Despite the unfavourable weather conditions guests enjoyed a hospitable evening in
an atmosphere of solidarity. COMKFOR had the pleasure in welcoming Mrs. Hane
LEKAJ BERISHA, Director of Community House of Decan/Decani.
The charity dinner organized by Joint Regional Detachment Center and Italian
National Support Element staff was attended by KFOR military and civilian
personnel. The organizers prepared and offered traditional Italian pizza and also
afforded the opportunity for guests to create their own pizza under the supervision of
Italian chefs.
During the evening, guests had the opportunity to donate to this worthy CIMIC
project. A proportion of the money raised was used to buy sanitary materials such as
wheelchairs and bedsore mattresses while the remaining money was used to
purchase home appliances and bed liners for the Community House.
The Community House helps people with severe and persistent mental illness and
provides a supportive family atmosphere for its members in which they can feel a
sense of belonging and grow at their own pace.
Donations, CIMIC projects and charity events are part of the initiatives carried out by
KFOR in favour of local population of all ethnicities, impartially and in the deepest
respect for different cultures and religious beliefs.
