Nothing is impossible!

The 8RK Foundation has been set up with the aim to join forces with others and help those in need. The idea to do so struck me earlier this year, in July, when I paid a visit to the children at the Institute of Oncology in Slovenia's capital Ljubljana. Spending some time with them made a profound impression on me and this was when I decided to make charity work one of my most important activities.

With the foundation I would like to encourage people to help raise as many funds as possible and thus give a bit of hope to those who have few reasons to smile.

We can make it happen, if we work together and use positive energy.

What can you do to help?

In order to raise funds, I joined forces with the Slovene company Toper and founded my own brand: 8RK. Each purchase made in the online shop aids in carrying out the charity work of the Foundation. By wearing T-shirts and caps of the 8RK brand, you are showing your support and kindness, so l'd like to thank you all sincerely for all your purchases

Who will the raised funds of the 8RK Foundation be given to?

The funds raised by the 8RK Foundation through selling the 8RK brand products, will be used for charitable purposes; the handover of the funds and other means of aid will be announced publicly. The Foundation will use the funds to help the children at the Institute of Oncology and the Premature Infants Ward in Ljubljana. The Foundation will also work with other non-profit humanitarian organizations and will take part in actual aid campaigns. As a football player, I also take great delight in the fact that part of the funds will be used to help those young talented football players at the Robert Koren Football School in Dravograd, who do not have the necessary conditions for training and progress on account of financial problems of their families.

Many thanks for your support and help!
