Considering a large number of calls from BiH citizens living in the United States and who want to help finance the country’s basketball teams, the Basketball Federation of BiH (KSBiH) has launched a fundraiser through the GoFundMe platform in the US, the Federation said Friday.

According to the secretary general of the KSBiH Amer Colan, the help of the diaspora can be crucial in an attempt to complete the financial structure for the national team’s preparations and participation in major competitions.

“This is an operation similar to the one in Australia, which was also initiated by our diaspora. We decided to launch it after a call from BiH citizens living in the US who really want to help. We then contacted Ismir Mirvic, the president of Sarajevo Football Club, who also got involved and we hope that his example will be followed by more people of goodwill,” says Colan.

The KSBiH announced earlier that the performances of Bosnia’s national teams at major competitions, including the men's A selection, are questionable due to a lack of finances. Despite securing part of the funds for international competitions, the KSBiH still lacks large amounts for the European and World Championships, which they hope to acquire via fundraisers such as the Go Fund Me platform.

All BiH citizens living in the United States can pay funds at this link of the GoFundMe platform.
