Tartan Army Sunshine Appeal

The motion

That the Parliament praises the Scotland football supporters who are involved in the Tartan Army Sunshine Appeal; understands that this group was set up following a trip to Bosnia where the story of a young boy who had been injured and orphaned during the shelling of Sarajevo captured the hearts of Scotland fans who then decided to raise money to help him; further understands that the Tartan Army Sunshine Appeal has given donations to organisations for disadvantaged and chronically ill children in every country that Scotland has visited since its first donation in Lithuania in 2003; notes that the organisation became a registered Scottish charity in 2012; believes that the Tartan Army Sunshine Appeal carries the good name of Scotland and its fans across the world with its generous acts; notes that the appeal will donate £1,500 to an organisation based in Novi Sad, Serbia, called the SOS Kinderdorf "Dr Milorad Pavlovic“, which it understands is an international, non-governmental and non-denominational, child-focused organisation that provides services in the care, education and health of children who have already lost or are at risk of losing parental care, and wishes the organisation well in its future endeavours to bring a little bit of sunshine to every country that the Tartan Army visits.
