As in previous years, the proceeds from this year’s bazaar will go to help those less fortunate in Slovenia. SILA is a voluntary, non-governmental, non-political and non-profit organisation. Its aim is to encourage social, cultural and educational exchanges and to foster a mutual understanding amongst its members. While they expect that over 30 countries will be represented at this year’s bazaar, the success of the event depends upon the public's generosity, and SILA gladly accepts any financial donations and also welcomes products or services.
