These days, civil protection, local self-government and the Ivanjica Red Cross are visiting endangered locals in remote rural homes. Before the snow, they take packages of food, medicine and aid, everything they need to live in the mountains.
The narrow roads leading to the town of Javor are slow to get to. The Milojevics are about twenty kilometers from the first houses in Kusici. Nine-year-old Dragoslav lives in difficult conditions with his mother Alma, without an income, but does not have great desires.
He says he would like to have goats and sheep to take care of.
– Keep them here and present the cable and leave them. Let’s turn on the shepherdess, if someone passes by, they take the electricity and leave, says Dragoslav.
Dragoslav does not have a computer or TV, and he does not go to school because since his father passed away, there is no one to take him. He has the only help of his uncle, who visits them from time to time.
– I prepared firewood for them, firewood, prepared it downstairs and took hay for the horse. They need a horse for wood and what are we going to do, they had a cow, their cow died, the calf was left – says Radmil Milojević.
It is difficult to live in the mountainous area of the Ivanjica municipality, so helping with basic food and hygiene products means a lot, but also a nice word and an outstretched hand.
– So we’re doing pretty bad. There is no shop, there is no transport, there is nothing, I am sick, I need transport and there is no transport – says Dragoslav Resimić from Erče.
– Blizzards, you can’t snow anywhere. You can’t even come by car, all on foot and here you are. When the children go to school, you pay for all the transportation back and forth and that, says Dragana Resimić.
The list of Red Cross volunteers includes around three hundred families in social distress who visit regularly.
– Every day around three teams, around ten people are in the field almost every day, so it is a huge field, but we really manage it well, because we have really good support from the local government and all the other institutions – says Marko Andrejevic from the Red Cross.
– As local self-government, we must not allow people to run out of basic food in remote areas. When it snows, sometimes cleaning takes a couple of days to reach those houses, so we react in time, to be able to toast and buy time for the next arrival here – says Momcilo Mitrović, President of the Municipality of Ivanjica.
Even before snow surrounds the scattered villages of Ivanjica, aid packages will reach the doorstep of all families in need.
