Lifeline Humanitarian Organization is an international effort founded 30 years ago in 1993 as an urgent response to the tragic humanitarian situation in the former Yugoslavia, which was afflicted by conflict and sanctions. The goal of Lifeline is to reduce and relieve the suffering of physically and mentally disabled children, orphans, the elderly as well as to improve medical facilities in the country.

HRH Crown Prince Alexander and HRH Crown Princess Katherine addressed guests at a benefit dinner. Crown Princess Katherine expressed her gratitude to her husband and everyone involved with the Lifeline Foundation. She mentioned that her humanitarian efforts for Serbia began three decades ago by providing medical equipment for the University Children Hospital in Belgrade.

Crown Princess Katherine emphasized that children, their health, and their well-being are at the core of her humanitarian activities, as well as the activities of her foundation in Belgrade and all Lifeline humanitarian organizations.

 Humanitarian items were donated such as clothing, paintings and portraits which were auctioned.
