The campaign by the Rijeka association CeKaDe under the slogan “Five at a Time and We’ll Change Their World,” which aims to bring awareness and motivate the public to provide ongoing financial assistance, was launched recently. It aims to raise funds to support the most vulnerable children more effectively, providing them with opportunities for a better life.
The campaign is part of the social inclusion programme for children living under the poverty line, My Place Under the Sun, which has been run by the association for nine years now.
JGL recognises its responsibility to enhance the quality of life and work within the community. The company acknowledges their unique role in promoting and preserving the European identity and the democratic values of freedom, equality, and enlightened active citizenship, which is why JGL has steadfastly supported this programme for several years.
In addition to the ongoing support of the initiative, JGL is the general sponsor of the new campaign “Five at a Time...” which, as its title suggests, encourages people to donate five euros a month by direct debit so that together we can “...Change Their World.”
With the donation of five euros a month the children, beneficiaries of the My Place Under the Sun initiative, will get what the system and their parents and caregivers can’t provide. The donations will provide ongoing assistance with their studies, tutoring, and psychological and social support, as well as opportunities to develop their interests and forge new friendships.

My Place Under the Sun is a programme that brings together some 60 children from Rijeka and the surrounding area every day and on an ongoing basis. A dedicated team comprising an equal number of volunteers and professional permanent staff works with the children to help break the cycle of poverty which hinders their access to equal opportunities for success and development. The programme has gained recognition not only in Rijeka but also throughout the Republic of Croatia. This is evident from numerous awards, accolades, and the visibility it has garnered over the years.
