Our Foundation has deep roots in the Serbian diaspora, including the founders and the support we receive for the development of education in Serbia and the education of Serbian youth. The importance that the diaspora can have for the motherland is enormous and still unused. These pages aim to highlight the work of Serbian organizations around the world that cherish their origins and connection with Serbia. We are stronger together, and information is the basis of any networking and collective contribution to development goals. ​
Serbian Philanthropic Association (SPA) is a non-profit organization founded in New York in 2017 with the aim of connecting people of Serbian origin and friends of Serbia in the diaspora, in order to jointly support projects of importance to the Serbian community.
​
Through various humanitarian and educational initiatives, SPA collects funds and directs them to organizations and individuals in Serbia and the region, with a special emphasis on education, culture and preservation of identity. At the third humanitarian gala organized by SPA, the funds collected were awarded to the Studenica Foundation for student scholarships. Read more about the event itself here.
