After the earthquake in Banovina, the Association of PVC System Providers for Construction of the HGK decided to provide scholarships to three students who were left homeless and who are studying for deficient occupations.

The vocational school in Sisak has selected three students who will receive a one-time scholarship of 5,000 kuna by signing a scholarship agreement. These are Lucija Krapčiček, who attends the fourth grade of the school for architectural technicians, Dražen Plavljanić, who is being educated as a carpenter (3rd grade) and Matej Boltužić, who is currently in the second grade as a self-propelled construction machine operator. All three had to move out of their homes into temporary accommodation due to the earthquake, and these are hard-working and motivated students for whom this scholarship will be a great wind in their backs to continue their education.

Aleksandar Terer, President of the Association of PVC System Providers for Construction, emphasizes that from the very beginning they wanted to help the area affected by the earthquake, but that due to the specifics of their business they could not immediately realize it through products. “We have decided to donate to vocational school students at the suggestion of school staff and thus facilitate their education and career start-ups, and we will continue to monitor their work and results,” said Terer, adding that together with his associates they have managed to donate PVC joinery to Banovina. worth more than 100,000 kuna for the reconstruction of damaged houses.
