A heartwarming tale of generosity unfolded as the monodrama "Bašta sljezove boje" (The Mallow Garden) culminated in a significant donation of medical equipment to the University Children's Clinic in Tiršova, Serbia. This "golden fairy tale of humanity" was brought to life through the combined efforts of the Mozzart Foundation, the NORBS Plus Foundation, and the acclaimed actor Nebojša Milovanović, alongside the supportive audience.

The unique initiative transformed each performance of the play into a charitable act. Instead of purchasing tickets, attendees made donations to the NORBS Plus Foundation, which supports individuals with rare diseases. The Mozzart Foundation further amplified these contributions, ensuring a substantial impact on the clinic's resources. Actor Nebojša Milovanović, who masterfully performed the lead role, expressed his gratitude, stating, "Dear audience, thank you for helping us write a golden fairy tale about humanity. Thanks to everyone who watched 'Bašta sljezove boje' at the Mozzart Foundation, valuable medical equipment was delivered to the Tiršova clinic. We showed that great deeds on stage inspire great deeds in real life."

The donated equipment is crucial for providing safe, controlled, and precise oxygen therapy to patients in need, including newborns, children, respiratory patients, and those recovering from surgery. The donation facilitated the equipping of hospital rooms and wards with oxygen heads and related apparatus, allowing more patients to receive direct oxygen therapy at their bedsides without the need for mobile equipment. This upgrade is particularly vital for departments treating the most severe pediatric cases, offering essential daily therapeutic support and care.

Professor Dr. Siniša Dučić, director of the University Children's Clinic, extended his sincere thanks to the Mozzart Foundation, the NORBS Plus Foundation, and Nebojša Milovanović. "We thank the NORBS Plus Foundation, the Mozzart Foundation, and actor Nebojša Milovanović, who, by performing in the play 'Bašta sljezove boje,' enabled the procurement of very important equipment for our clinic," he said. The collaboration underscored the message that empathy should not be a rare commodity, especially when considering the numerous families affected by rare diseases.
