Ethno Network at Ambassador’s charity wine

Ethno Network participated in Ambassadors’ Charity Wine Auction that was held at the Canadian residence in Uzicka in Dedinje. The event was hosted by World Bank Country Manager Tony Verheijen and Lesya Verheijen and H.E. Ambassador Philip Pinnington and Erica Pinnington, in cooperation with the Novak Djokovic Foundation, Radovanovic Winery and artist Pavel Hlajko who hand painted the labels for wine bottles. Ethno Network was exhibiting and selling its beautiful artisanal handicrafts and a hand-embroidered alphabet was included in the auction.

With the funds that were raised on this occasion, the Foundation will finance the establishment of a pre-school in a disadvantaged community in Medosevac, close to Nis, where there is currently no access to pre-school education.

The auctioned alphabet went to H.E. Australian ambassador, Julia Feeney Ethno Network’s patron and great supporter.

H.E. Michael Davenport also bought his own copy of gold-threaded Cyrillic alphabet that makes the most desired gift in the protocol of the Government of Serbia.
