On Wednesday, 15th of May, we attended a fundraising event called "Together for Syrian Refugees". It was organized by the delegations of US and UK - they were collecting donations, which will be donated to UNHCR's Syrian crisis urgent appeal. Below you'll find photos from the event and a video in which you can listen to some speeches and impressions. If you haven't watched it yet, you can also see the interview that we did with the organizers one day before the event.
Before we leave you to the video, we have a special announcement to make! H.E. ms. Petković and H.E. ms. Učakar raised 110 euros! And two other donations are promised for next week. So congratulations are in order, fantastic turnout! The effort that both delegates put in was really enourmous so we can only thank them for a great event - which turned out to be not only for a good cause, but also a great place to hang out in a relaxed atmosphere.

"Together for Syrian Refugees" - Video & Photo Report
See the video HERE.
Click on the photos to enlarge them.
For everyone who did not attend - the photos are doing injustice to the baked goods. They were even more delicious in real.
"NO, I will not let you take a picture of me with the American flag! I want the Syrian one!!"
South Africa: "Oh my, soooo delicious."
Iran: "Indeed..."
"Please take the photo as quickly as possible so I can finally eat this cupcake!"
P.S. Our kind Presiding Officer also bought one for one of our journalists. Thank you Damjan!
Iran taking bribe from USA...
And regretting it...
"Karolina, just pick one..." <3 <3
"Oh Karolina you're so sweet...."
WHAT IS THIS? JOURNALISTS IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA? OUTRAGEOUS!!!! ;-)
"I'm telling you, the cake that the US delegate baked for today had to be this big!"
