Raiffeisen Bank's Donor Forum Gathers Doctors, Professors, Artists, and Environmentalists

Raiffeisen Bank celebrated its 25th anniversary in Serbia by hosting a Donor Forum at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Belgrade. The event brought together partners from educational, cultural, and health institutions to express gratitude for their collaboration and the bank's support.

“

Our donations are directed to institutions in the fields of healthcare, higher education, art and culture, animal protection, as well as the improvement of sports infrastructure for children. Behind each of these areas is someone's life - a child who will play on a new field for the first time, a student who gets a better education, a doctor whose job we have made easier, fauna with which we share the environment, people whom art and culture encourage critical thinking.

Zoran Petrović, President of the Executive Board of Raiffeisen Bank, emphasized the bank's commitment to the communities where it operates. "Our donations are directed to institutions in the fields of healthcare, higher education, art and culture, animal protection, as well as the improvement of sports infrastructure for children," Petrović stated. He added that these contributions directly impact lives, from children playing on new fields to students receiving better education and doctors having improved working conditions.

The device that was purchased with the donation helped to care for newborn children with severely impaired vital functions.

Recipients shared how the bank's support has made a tangible difference. Vladislav Vukomanović, director of the Institute for Mother and Child "Vukan Čupić," noted that a donated device has significantly aided in caring for newborns with critical vital functions. The Faculty of Electrical Engineering also benefited, with Dean Zoran Čiča highlighting the importance of donations for student development and future recruitment for the bank. Saša Marinković from the Foundation for the Protection of Griffon Vultures shared successful scientific results in monitoring griffon vultures, including the tracking of a vulture named Rajka to Africa.

“

The donation really means a lot for the improvement of some segments for our students, and we will certainly use it well to further educate future candidates for Raiffeisen Bank. I heard that you have a really strong IT sector with many of our students. Others should also look up to such a high degree of social responsibility.

The bank's philanthropic efforts extend to numerous other organizations, including the "Bogdan Bogdanović" Foundation, the Museum of Contemporary Art, and the Ozon Gallery, underscoring a broad commitment to social responsibility.

The star of our cooperation is the griffon vulture Rajka, who is the first vulture we officially know went to Africa.
