28. Jun holds 300th Event, Passes 250,000 Fans on Facebook!

International humanitarian organization, 28. Jun, reached two significant milestones this week! On Friday, we held our 300th event since our formation in 2011, it took place in Chicago and we were extremely happy with the turnout and community support. 28. Jun members have worked tirelessly holding fundraisers and awareness events in over 120 cities across 30 countries over the past 5 years. On Tuesday, we passed 250,000 Fans on our Facebook page, giving us a reach of over half a million people when combined with our other social media platforms and our mailing list.

With such achievements, comes great responsibility and accountability to our supporters, which we take very seriously, this is why for FULL TRANSPARENCY we have now updated the blog section of our official website https://28jun.org/blog/ and included all our humanitarian deliveries since 2011. Additionally, even more detailed documentation of every delivery has been added to the ‘Albums‘ section of our official Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/28jun/photos/?tab=albums

28. Jun’s audited financials, prepared by an independent accounting firm and an independent appraiser in Canada, in concert with an audit oversight committee, can be viewed/downloaded on: https://28jun.org/transparency/ Lastly, because we operate in regions where the stigma of corruption and clientelism is rampant, we are in the process of partnering with PwC’s Global X Assessor division. The Swiss-based firm uses the latest technology and innovation to appraise the quality of our humanitarian work through analytics, real time assessment of our projects, monitoring, and reporting while significantly reducing the cost of our administrative work.

We pride ourselves on our efficient management of resources, for every $1 donated to 28. Jun, we have delivered $28 worth of humanitarian aid to needy families and communities. We are the only WHS-affiliated organization working in the Western Balkans and we are privileged to have formed lasting partnerships with the Red Cross and the UN.

Međunarodna humanitarna organizacija 28. Jun ove nedjelje obeležava dva bitna događaja! U petak smo u Čikagu održali svoj 300. po redu event od osnivanja organizacije 2011., i izuzetno smo zadovoljni ne samo sa odazivom, već i iskazanom podrškom cele zajednice. Kroz poslednjih 5 godina, članovi 28. Juna su se pokazali neumornim – u samo tih 5 godina, organizovali su evente za prikupljanje humanitarnih sredstava i podizanje svesti u više od 120 gradova u 30 zemalja širom sveta. Od utorka se naša Facebook stranica može pohvaliti sa više od 250.000 fanova, što znači da nam sad, kad dodamo druge društvene mreže i mailing listu, doseg uključuje više od pola milijona ljudi!

Ovakva dostignuća takode nalažu veliku odgovornost prema svima koji nas podržavaju, odgovornost koju shvatamo veoma ozbiljno. Zato smo nedavno, sa ciljem APSOLUTNE TRANSPARENTNOSTI, ažurirali blog naše službene web-stranice (https://28jun.org/blog/) i naveli sve humanitarne dostave od 2011. nadalje. Uz to, detaljnija dokumentacija svake isporuke je dodana u Albumewebstranice: https://www.facebook.com/28jun/photos/?tab=albums.

Revidirani financijski izveštaji organizacije, pripremljeni od strane nezavisne računovodstvene tvrtke kao i nezavisnog procenitelja u Kanadi, u dogovoru s nadzornim odborom za reviziju, se mogu pregledati i downloadati ovde: https://28jun.org/transparency/. Pošto delujemo u delu sveta u kojem je stigma klijentelizma i korupcije još uvek sveprisutna, trenutno sklapamo partnerstvo sa divizijom Global X Assessoršvajcarske kompanije PwC, koja koristi najnovije tehnologije i inovacije kako bi procenila kvalitet našeg humanitarnog rada pomoću analitike, procenom projekata u stvarnom vremenu, nadgledanjem, i izveštavanjem, tako istovremeno smanjujući administrativne troškove.

Ponosimo se i našim efikasnim korištenjem resursa – za svaki $1 doniran 28. Junu, mi smo dostavili humanitarnu pomoć u vrednosti od $28 potrebitim porodicama i zajednicama, Takode smo jedina organizacija povezana s Svetskim humanitarnim samitom (eng. WHS) koja deluje na Zapadnom Balkanu, a i čast nam je što smo uspostavili trajna partnerstva sa Crvenim krstom i Ujedinjenim nacijama.
