About us

Young people united around a shared goal

Rečane Youth Association was created to connect young people from our community and the diaspora and create a space where we can launch initiatives, solve problems and contribute to the development of Rečane together.

We want to direct the energy, knowledge, time and opportunities of our youth toward concrete projects that benefit the whole community. Our work is not only about young people. Our goal is to create better conditions for all residents of Rečane, our children, families and older generations.

§

The Association operates in accordance with the Statute of Rečane Youth Association, which provides the foundation for our work, organization and decision-making.

Omladinsko društvo Rečane
Together with every generation

We build Rečane together.

Rečane Youth Association brings together and organizes young people, but we believe our community cannot move forward without cooperation and mutual respect across all generations.

The experience, knowledge and previous contributions of our older residents have great value. Their advice, ideas, contacts and understanding of Rečane can help us make better decisions and launch stronger projects.

That is why we want to foster open cooperation between young people and older generations so that we can work together on the issues that matter to the whole community.

Residents over the age of 40 do not need to be members of the Youth Association to take part and support our work. They can contribute through suggestions, experience, contacts, support for specific projects or voluntary donations.

Every generation has something to offer. Together, we can do more.
Our mission

What do we want to achieve?

Our mission is to contribute to the development of Rečane and strengthen the connection among our people through community, responsibility and concrete work.

Our focus includes improving our surroundings, youth and sports activities, cultural and social events, humanitarian initiatives, environmental protection, support for children and older residents, and projects that can improve quality of life in Rečane in the long term.

We especially want to connect young people living in Rečane with our people in the diaspora because we believe we can achieve much more together.
