Since 2014, SSIO volunteers in Croatia have served the needy in the small village of Letovanic. In December 2016, SSIO members started to teach the villagers how to grow organic vegetables and introduced SSEHV to the children of the rural community. The volunteers, in cooperation with the local fire department, organised a puppet show for 50 elementary school children from Letovanic and nearby villages to showcase the human values being taught in the SSEHV programme. SSIO volunteers from Bjelovar presented a performance on the value of love, compassion, and service to the school children, parents, teachers, school principals, and head of the municipality of Letovanic. In addition to discussing the SSEHV programme, the organisers shared entertaining and educational human values songs and stories.
