Voku for Roma Community in Slovakia Whose Village Has Burnt Down

- August 3rd, 2023

Monday 21 august 2023, Voku for Roma Community in Slovakia Whose Village Has Burnt Down. Food served from 7pm, no reservation.

We kindly ask you for your support of more than 70 Roma people in Telgárt, Slovakia, whose housing burnt down this July. These people were already living in slums, often without water or electricity and have no means to recover on their own. They are now living in tents with very few possessions.

As Roma people are the most marginalized community in Slovakia, this tragedy was given little to no attention in media, nor on any crowdfunding platform.

We would like to donate the money to the crowdfunding call of the Telgárt municipality that is currently providing them with tents, food, clothes, hygienic products and other essentials.

We will have a yummy and filling vegan dinner, and quite possibly a show afterwards! More details to come 🙂
