Balkan relief and recovery
More than 100,000 people remain displaced in the aftermath of the unprecedented floods that ravaged Bosnia, Serbia and other Balkan countries last month. Altogether, the floods claimed more than 75 lives, affected more than one million people and caused damages up to several billions of dollars. Officials in Bosnia fear the costs of the damages could exceed that of the 1992-1995 war. Read more about our response through Week of Compassion, and thank you for your prayers.
