Out of the planned one million euros, the Central State Office for Croats Abroad has allocated 906,000 euros for projects and individuals of interest to the Croatian diaspora and socially vulnerable individuals.

The Office supported 216 projects and individuals, and provided one-time financial aid to around 70 socially vulnerable Croats in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, and Kosovo.

The highest amount, 20,000 euros, went to one project: a charity event by the Croatian Catholic Centre "Marija Kraljica Hrvata" in Wollongong, Australia. A smaller amount, 14,000 euros, was given to the Croatian Home in Montevideo, Uruguay, for its 96th anniversary activities.

Two projects from Serbia received 12,000 euros each: one for student transportation by the Croatian National Council in Subotica, and another by the Srijem Diocese in Srijemska Mitrovica.

An association in Bijelo Brdo, Derventa, received 11,000 euros to complete an outdoor square for the local Croatian community.

Ten thousand euros each were awarded to a local community in Čitluk, Bosnia and Herzegovina, for cultural center renovations, and to Marina Stojak from Salzburg for the CroExpress media.

Other projects received less than 10,000 euros, with the smallest amounts, 1,000 euros each, going to projects from Zagreb, Grude, and Belgium. One-time financial aid for 70 socially vulnerable Croats abroad ranged from 350 to 1,200 euros.

The funds were allocated based on a one-million-euro public call from February, the largest in the past 10 years. The previous calls were worth 880,000 euros and 800,000 euros.
