Dear sport friends,
Our country is currently facing unprecedented flooding. A terrible natural
disaster which had struck Serbia took many human lives and created
enormous material damages. The danger is not over yet, and we will need a lot
of time and money to eliminate all the consequences.
At the first indication that the floods caused by massive rainfall will lead to a
crisis of unimaginable proportions, BC Crvena zvezda Telekom got maximally
engaged to help the disadvantaged. Our two sports halls, Basket City and
Basket Land, used for years for the games of Euroleague Nike qualifying
tournament for juniors (NIJT), have been - in the shortest possible time and
with the help of great involvement of people who work at the club - adapted and
prepared for the reception of evacuees. We worked around the clock to care for
the most vulnerable, among them many children, pregnant women, elderly and
immobile people, and we were the first to provide help after they left their
homes, cold and wet.
The players and coaching staff of BC Crvena zvezda Telekom also got engaged
in charity work, as did the the members of the club management who provided
financial assistance on Friday, May 16. Basketball players also actively
participated in the storing of humanitarian aid which kept coming into our help
reception centre in large quantities and which was distributed to those who
needed it most.
Also, our international players, Jaka Blazic (Slovenia), Demarkus Nelson (USA)
and Charles Jenkins (USA), Oleksandr Lypovyy (Ukraine) through video
messages that were forwarded through internet sites and social networks, urged
their compatriots to help the vulnerable households in Serbia with their
donations.

Considering our very strong partnership and friendly relations, we would like to
ask you to use your immense influence and authority in the basketball world
and urge the basketball teams and organizations across Europe to engage in
humanitarian action to help Serbia. Given the daunting scale of the floods in
Serbia, we will not be able to rebuild the country alone and provide a normal
life for a large number of families.
For years now, the Euroleague has been promoting socially responsible and
humanitarian actions, and therefore we hope that you will consider our appeal
and help us.
