!!!Nachbar in Not
Nachbar in Not (Neighbour in Need), a relief scheme started by the
Austrian broadcasting corporation ORF, Caritas and the Red Cross in
1992 in order to help the population in the war zones of the former
Yugoslavia. More than ATS 1.1 billion had been donated by late 1997
(supported by other European Broadcasting Corporations), which made
the transport of 3,676 truckloads of goods (ca. 73,520 tons) possible.
More than 300,000 refugees and expellees, regardless of their origin
or religion, were supplied with these goods. Nachbar in Not is the
largest private humanitarian relief scheme for people in the Balkan
countries.
