Lifeline Chicago Renovates Two Children’s Playgrounds in Belgrade
Belgrade, 16 June 2026 – Lifeline Humanitarian Organization of Chicago, under the Patronage of HRH Crown Princess Katherine, has completed the renovation of two children’s playgrounds at the Jovan Jovanović Zmaj Home for Children and the Drinka Pavlović Home for Children in Belgrade.
This project was made possible through the extraordinary generosity of The John and Mildred Medich Wuchenich Foundation, longtime supporters of Lifeline Chicago. The Foundation not only originally donated the playgrounds but also funded their complete renovation and enhancement, ensuring that children continue to enjoy safe, engaging, and joyful places to play.
“The John and Mildred Medich Wuchenich Foundation has once again demonstrated its deep commitment to improving the lives of vulnerable children,” said HRH Crown Princess Katherine. “Their compassion and generosity have created beautiful spaces where children can play, grow, and simply enjoy being children.”
Lifeline Chicago extends its heartfelt gratitude to The John and Mildred Medich Wuchenich Foundation and all of its donors whose continued support helps bring hope, comfort, and brighter futures to children in need.
Thanks to the generosity of our donors, children now have a safe and welcoming place to play, learn, and grow. This renovated playground will bring joy to countless young lives for years to come.
A gift that keeps on giving. Through the support of dedicated donors, this updated playground provides children with a secure and stimulating environment where imagination and friendship can flourish.
Every swing and smile is made possible by compassionate supporters who believe every child deserves a happy childhood filled with play, laughter, and opportunity.
The true impact of donor generosity is seen as this child is enjoying his newly renovated playground. Thank you for helping create moments of joy that will last a lifetime.
Laughter, friendship, and carefree play—these are the gifts our donors have made possible. Seeing children enjoy their playground is the greatest reward of all.
Children are already making wonderful memories on their renovated playground. We are deeply grateful to our donors for helping create a safe, fun, and inspiring space where children can simply be children.
