Beograd, 22. septembar 2011. – Na svečanosti organizovanoj u školi za učenike oštećenog vida “Veljko Ramadanović“ u Zemunu, u prisustvu Milana Stošića, predsednika  Saveza slepih Srbije, Dejana Marinkovića, šefa Narodne kancelarije Dragane Roter, rukovodioca sektora Korporativnih komunikacija kompanije Vip mobile i Radmile Laban, direktorke škole, 40 talentovanih slabovidih i slepih učenika širom Srbije dobilo je specijalno dizajnirane „dejzi plejer“ uređaje za slepe, poklon kompanije Vip mobile. „Dejzi plejer“ uređaji predstavljaju izuzetno korisno sredstvo u svakodnevnom životu i radu osoba oštećenog vida jer pretvaraju pisani materijal u audio zapis i na taj način im omogućavaju da čitaju. Pored toga, ovi uređaji omogućavaju kvalitetno snimanje i reprodukciju materijala.

„Dejzi plejer“ uređaje dobilo je 15 uspešnih đaka škole za učenike oštećenog vida “Veljko Ramadanović“ u Zemunu, kao i 11 talentovanih studenata, 6 srednjoškolaca i 8 osnovaca u redovnoj nastavi širom Srbije, koji su odabrani na konkursu koji su raspisali Savez slepih Srbije i Vip mobile.

„Povodom početka nove školske godine, želeli smo da nagradimo učenike i studente koji su postigli zapažene rezultate tokom dosadašnjeg školovanja i da ih dodatno motivišemo za dalje uspehe. Svesni smo problema sa kojima se suočavaju slepe i slabovide osobe u Srbiji i zbog toga nam je izuzetno drago što smo, donacijom zvučnih semafora i „dejzi plejer“ uređaja, uspeli da im učinimo život lakšim. Još jednom se zahvaljujem Narodnoj kancelariji predsednika Republike i Ministarstvu rada i socijalne politike koji su podržali našu inicijativu“, rekla je Dragana Roter, rukovodilac sektora Korporativnih komunikacija, Vip mobile.

U ime učenika škole „Veljko Ramadanović“, na donaciji se zahvalila direktorka Radmila Laban. „Zahvaljujući Vipu, učenici naše škole dobili su izuzetno koristan uređaj koji je potpunosti prilagođen njihovim potrebama i koji će im u velikoj meri pomoći u savladavanju gradiva. Naša škola ima tradiciju od 90 godina i stalno prati trendove u nauci i praksi, tako da sam sigurna da će naši mališani uz „dejzi plejer“ uređaje postizati još bolje rezultate, kako u školi, tako i u vannastavnim aktivnostima.

Milan Stošić, predsednik Saveza slepih Srbije izrazio je zahvalnost Vipu u ime nagrađenih učenika i studenata. On je takođe pohvalio sve dosadašnje napore Vipa da pomogne osobama oštećenog vida u Srbiji i naglasio da je, u saradnji sa Savezom slepih, pre nekoliko meseci Vip takođe kreirao posebnu tarifu za članove ovog udruženja koja je u potpunosti prilagođena njihovim potrebama u komunikaciji.

Vipova donacija deo je velikog projekta pomoći slepim i slabovidim ljudima koji ova kompanija realizuje od početka godine i u okviru koga je već 1.750.000 dinara izdvojeno za postavljanje govornih uređaja na semaforima u osam gradova Srbije, koji slepima i slabovidima olakšavaju samostalno kretanje preko ulice. Sva sredstva su prikupljena tako što se Vip odrekao dela prihoda od SMS poruka koje su korisnici slali tokom novogodišnje noći, kao i putem donacija Vip korisnika na humanitarni broj 2001.

 

Belgrade, September 22, 2011 – At the ceremony organized at the school for visually impaired pupils “Veljko Ramadanović” in Zemun in the presence of Dragana Roter, Head of Corporate Communications in Vip mobile, Radmila Laban, School Principal, Milan Stošić, President of the Serbian Association of Blind and Visually Impaired People and Dejan Marinković, Director of the People’s Office, 40 talented visually impaired and blind pupils and students from all across Serbia have received the specially designed “daisy player” devices for blind persons, a gift from Vip mobile. “Daisy player” devices represent an extremely useful device in everyday lives and careers of visually impaired persons since they convert the written material into audio recording thereby enabling them to read. In addition these devices enable quality recording and reproduction of the material.

 “Daisy player” devices were received by 15 successful pupils from the school for visually impaired pupils “Veljko Ramadanović“ in Zemun as well as 11 talented university students, 6 high-school students and 8 pupils attending regular classes from all across Serbia who were selected at the competition announced by the Serbian Association of Blind and Visually Impaired People and Vip mobile.

“On the occasion of the beginning of the new school year we wanted to reward the pupils and students who achieved the significant results in their education and to additionally motivate them for future success. We are aware of the problems encountered by the blind and visually impaired persons in Serbia and therefore we are very glad that by donating the audio traffic lights and “daisy player” devices we succeeded in making their lives easier. Once again I would like to thank the People’s Office of the President and the Ministry of Labour and Social Policy who supported our initiative” said Dragana Roter, Head of Corporate Communications in Vip mobile.

On behalf of “Veljko Ramadanović“ pupils, the Principal Radmila Laban thanked for the donation. “Due to Vip, the pupils of our school have received an extremely useful device which is fully adjusted to their needs and which will largely help them with their curriculum. Our school has a 90 year old tradition and keeps up with the trends both in science and practice and I am confident that the little ones will achieve even better results with “daisy player“ devices, both in school and out-of-curriculum activities.

Milan Stošić, president of the Serbian Association of Blind and Visually Impaired People has expressed his gratitude to Vip on behalf of rewarded pupils and students. He also praised all previous efforts of Vip to help the visually impaired persons in Serbia and stressed that a few months ago Vip has in cooperation of the Association of Blind and Visually Impaired People created a special tariff for the members of this Association which is fully adjusted to their communication needs“.

 

Vip donation is a part of a big project helping the blind and visually impaired people implemented by Vip since the beginning of the year wherein 1,750,000 dinars has already been allocated for installation of voice devices on the traffic lights in eight bigger cities in Serbia which enable the blind and visually impaired people to cross the street on their own. All the funds were gathered by Vip giving up a part of its revenue generated from SMS messages sent by the users during the New Year’s Eve as well as by means of donations of Vip users to the humanitarian number 2001.
