A well-intentioned grouping of Eritreans in Stockholm on 28 February 2015 made a donation of 5,000 Swedish krona (US $600)  in support of the Center for Disabled Eritreans in Kassala, Sudan.

The sum was received by Ms Alganesh Isaac, chairperson of the Sweden branch of the Association for Disabled Eritreans (ADE), an international body legally established in France and presided by the veteran freedom fighter Tesfai Teklezghi.

ADESweden2The good gestures of the civil society grouping in Stockholm, known as the Eritrean Platform for Dialogue,  are also being extended to help newly arriving young Eritreans in Sweden to provide them with basic assistance and correct information in the process of social integration they are engaged in.

The Center for Disabled Persons in Kassala was established over two decades ago to help those persons who had no other source of support. Donations for the center are annually collected by sympathizers in several places in North America and Europe.
