In 2022, Mozart donated more than 100 million dinars in Serbia
It is well known that the Mozzart company is a regional leader in the organization of games of chance, and its name is equally associated with the epithet of a leader in the field of humanity. In 2022 alone, more than 100 million dinars were donated for humanitarian purposes. With Mozart's assistance, help reached the addresses of numerous individuals, health and cultural institutions, humanitarian organizations and associations, sports teams, etc. Numerous humanitarian matches and tournaments were organized, manifestations of cultural importance were supported, and ongoing actions continued by which the company has been recognizable for many years. With Mozzart's support, the ideas of young startup teams were launched into the universe, numerous female entrepreneurs realized their business plans, different parts of Serbia received courts where future basketball aces will grow, numerous amateur clubs shone in new jerseys, and the first 50 gloves for the blind in the world was donated in our country thanks to this company. Socially responsible actions are carried out in all markets where the company operates, on three continents. For the last two years, the One Hundred Wells Campaign has been implemented in Kenya, where 11 wells have been opened so far, and thereby significant progress in increasing access to clean drinking water for the residents of this African country has been made. In 2022 alone, three wells were opened. The large environmental project called “Rezzikliraj” was implemented in cities throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina. During the campaign, they organized the collection of PET packaging, as well as a prize competition for the best DIY project on the topic of material recycling. The money from the sale of the collected packaging was donated to the Ecological Association “Eko put” from Bijeljina, and the winners of the competition were students from Kiseljak 1 Primary School who won a valuable cash prize.
“In the past year, we have supported everyone who needs it – sports clubs, young people who dream big, humanitarian organizations, health institutions, etc. We will continue at the same pace next year in order to maintain the leading position in the humanitarian ranking,” said Borjan Popović, Director of Corporate Communications of the Mozzart company.

The selected startups won grants in the total amount of EUR 25,000, received secured space and mentoring support, as well as the opportunity to present their ideas to potential investors.
