In late July 2026, Serbian public figures began prominent online appeals for cancer care financing. Television presenter Ana Pupić sought funds for lung‑cancer immunotherapy in Cuba, while singer Milica Dugalić raised awareness and donations for her breast‑cancer treatment. The campaigns detailed bank‑account numbers in multiple currencies and emphasized family motivations. The following day, similar fundraising drives emerged for other patients in the region. A young Serbian girl with a malignant adrenal‑gland tumor was slated for treatment at New York’s MSK Cancer Center, prompting the Humanost bez granica foundation to collect donations via SMS and transfers. Simultaneously, a Bosnian woman from Zenica diagnosed with liver cancer launched an appeal through Udruženje “Pomozi.ba,” requesting contributions to cover costly immunotherapy. Both efforts extended the earlier Serbian media‑driven appeals, illustrating a broader, cross‑border pattern of grassroots financial support for complex cancer therapies in the Balkans. On 2 August 2026, Amela Šarić, a 42‑year‑old from Tuzla, Bosnia and Herzegovina, announced a humanitarian appeal after being diagnosed with aggressive invasive‑ductal breast cancer (grade III). While receiving chemotherapy at the University Clinical Center Tuzla, her family sought public donations to cover treatment and medication costs, providing a Raiffeisen Bank IBAN for contributions.
