Thanks to the donation, worth almost 120,000 DKK, more than 200 children will get new mattresses, pillows, duvets, blankets, bedlinen and other sleeping products in order to have a more peaceful sleep.

JYSK representatives visited each children's home to personally donate the products. One of them was Vesna Kukic Loncaric, Country manager for Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia & Herzegovina and Serbia.

"We wanted to celebrate our tenth anniversary in Croatia by doing something nice for our local community, so we decided to help the children. Their joy confirmed that we had done a good thing. It is a great initiative and my pleasure to be able to see the smile on their faces,” she said.
