Pastor Dusan Beredji (known to us as Bera) regularly sends news items about his church's homeless project and also about the drug and alcohol rehab center 'Centar Duga'.
Men with life-threatening problems can go there for a long-term rehabilitation program.
The rehab center is largely self-sufficient thanks to a moving van service, a chicken farm, and vegetable greenhouses. They also gladly receive donations.
The farm has multiple objectives:
- It enables a reduction in food costs for the beneficiaries - by improving their nutrition and through the sale of surplus products.
- It contributes to the path of self-sustainability, which is the goal, by reducing overall costs.
- It serves as a therapeutic work component for the center's beneficiaries.
- It provides beneficiaries with a sense of self-worth, as their work contributes to the center's operations.
- Beneficiaries acquire new skills that can benefit them in their future lives.

We really like these kinds of practical projects. Jan has visited the center and has seen with his own eyes how they run the center on a daily basis, and how lives are being changed there, every day.
