Novi Sad pledges continued support for pensioners

The Novi Sad Pensioners' Association celebrated its 80th anniversary during a ceremony attended by Mayor Žarko Mićin. During the event, Mićin reaffirmed the city's commitment to improving the quality of life for its oldest citizens.

Key initiatives mentioned include free trips to spas and the “Get to Know Your City to Love It” program, which allows seniors to explore local landmarks and history. Additionally, the city recently provided a one-time financial aid payment of 20,000 dinars to low-income pensioners whose monthly pensions do not exceed 31,092 dinars, intended to assist with winter preparations.

Milena Žarković, president of the association, highlighted the organization's eight-decade mission to care for the health and well-being of the elderly.
