The 16th edition of the Tehlička public collection for 2021 was registered with the Slovak Ministry of the Interior in the register of public collections on 29 September 2020 under number SVS-OVS2-2020/026235-005.

The collection ran until 31 October 2021.

The gross proceeds of the collection amounted to €121,496.71. The cost of running the collection was 15.02 percent. The net proceeds reached €103,248.13. With the funds raised we helped to secure the reconstruction of the community house in Jakutsk. In the first phase we helped repair the roof and the other rooms of the Salesian pastoral work in Aldan, which were in a state of emergency. Together with us you create the warmth of home and help warm people in the coldest place on Earth. We cooperate with the Salesians of Don Bosco, who have been working in Jakutsk since 1991.

The collection directly involved 56 kindergartens, primary and secondary schools, 17 SDB youth centres and other communities, 4 parishes and also 1 company in villages and towns throughout Slovakia.

All participants were sent promotional and background materials, which were used not only for the collection campaign but also as a basis for education and awareness-raising in the area of development aid. As part of the collection, with our consent, schools carried out their own activities that served its purpose.

WE THANK ALL DONORS AND PARTICIPANTS FOR SUPPORTING TEHLIČKA 2021
