On the occasion of the International Children’s Day, the wife of the Slovak Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mrs Jarmila Lajčáková - Hargašová visited Children’s Home in Nové Mesto nad Váhom. The children prepared a cultural programme and then each received a present. Mrs Lajčáková - Hargašová also presented the Children’s Home with a financial gift by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Some of the funds have been raised at a social event marking the 20th anniversary of the Velvet Revolution in New York that was attended by the Slovak Foreign Minister Miroslav Lajčák. This charitable event was organised by the General Consulate of the Slovak Republic in New York in November 2009. Additional funds were donated by the Ministry’s organisation SLOVES that has been working with this Children’s Home for the past eight years.
