"Long after the official cessation of hostilities, much of Bosnia and Herzegovina remains a casualty of war. Its people face daily poverty."

Long after the official cessation of hostilities, much of Bosnia and Herzegovina remains a casualty of war. Its people face daily poverty. The illiteracy rate approaches 30%. Access to medical care is limited. The murder of more than 200,000 people has left a generation of orphans. And many of those who perpetrated the chaos remain at large.

The Sanela Diana Jenkins Foundation for Bosnia and Herzegovina is committed to restoring dignity, prosperity, justice and hope to the country. The Foundation, established in the memory of Irnis Catic, pursues diplomatic, philanthropic, educational and legal initiatives that include:

- Rebuilding hospitals;
- Repairing roads;
- Advising Bosnian leaders;
- Funding schools;
- Donating modern medical equipment;
- Establishing an international justice center to bring war criminals to account.

Four years of war brought terror and bloodshed to Bosnia. Fourteen years of “peace” have left the country still struggling to recover. Even now, the future of Bosnia is threatened as European leaders consider undoing key tenets of the landmark Dayton Accord.

Vec dugo nakon zvanicnog prekida svih ratnih dešavanja, veliki dio Bosne i Hercegovine je i dalje žrtva rata. Bh. narod se svakodnevno suoci sa siromaštvom. Stopa nepismenosti doseže skoro 30%. Mogucnost medicinskog zbrinjavanja je ogranicena. Ubistvo više od 200.000 ljudi je iza sebe ostavilo generaciju sirocadi. A mnogi od onih koji su prouzrokovali haos su na slobodi.

Fondacija za Bosnu i Hercegovinu Sanele Diane Jenkins ima za cilj vracanje dostojanstva, prosperiteta, pravde i nade za zemlju. Fondacija, koja je osnovana u spomen na Irnisa Catica, potice diplomatske, filantropske, obrazovne i pravne inicijative, koje obuhvataju:

- Doniranje savremene medicinske opreme;
- Ponovnu izgradnju bolnica;
- Popravak cesta;
- Savjetovanje bosanskih politicara;
- Finansiranje škola;
- Uspostavljanje medunarodnog centra za pravdu sa ciljem pozivanja ratnih zlocinaca na odgovornsot.

Cetverogodišnji rat je uzrokovao teror i krvoprolice u Bosni. Tokom petnaest godina „mira“, zemlja je i dalje u borbi za oporavak. Cak i sada, buducnost Bosne je ugrožena, jer evropski politicari razmatraju promjenu kljucnih nacela Dejtonskog sporazuma.
