Members · of · the · foundation
Humana srca foundation was founded on April 4, 2022, with its headquarters in Belgrade.
The founder of the foundation, Danijela Vasilijević, and the executive director, Nikolina Đujić, had a vision,after many years of work in the public sector, to make that work more visible and direct through more proactive humanitarian action.
Bearing in mind that they are both mothers of three, the decision on the target group, which consists of children and youth, was natural, and so was the desire to help create a happy childhood for all children in Serbia with their work.
