Proceeding with “Make a WISH”
Belgrade, Dec. 13
Sometimes we receive a letter at the Embassy with request for a “WISH” that is also a birthday present.

World Day of the Poor
Belgrade, Nov. 18, 2018
The Embassy of the Sovereign Order of Malta wanted to participate actively in the “World Day of the Poor” through its initiative dedicated to the marginalized and elderly people, affirming in this way the millennial charism of the Order “Obsequium Pauperum” (“Assistance to the poor”) and its constant commitment in favor of people in need of medical assistance and of living a life of dignity, both at an international level and in Serbia.
“Make a WISH” for the Union of the blind Serbia
A few months ago the “Union of the blind” Serbia has sent a “WISH” to the Embassy: a Braille printing system.
Easy to understand, the life of the blind is particularly complicated, especially bearing in mind the access to reading. Nevertheless, there are many Serbian students who, even if partially sighted, are able to graduate. Perhaps also thanks to the well-stocked library of the Union which is the richest in the Balkans with about 80,000 texts (50.000 in Braille Alphabet).
