A charity campaign launched in England to help 17-year-old Erind Goçlari and his family has raised over 119 pounds, significantly exceeding the initial target of 85 pounds.

The campaign was initiated by Daniel Nikolla, who says that the young man's family lives in difficult economic conditions and is in urgent need of reconstruction of their apartment. According to him, Erindi lost his mother to cancer in 2018, when he was still a child, and today he lives with his father, brother and sister.

The campaign description states that the 17-year-old participated in protests against Prime Minister Edi Rama, demanding his resignation, and was subsequently fined by the State Police with 5 million old lek, or about 500 thousand new lek. The amount of the fine is estimated at approximately 4,600 pounds.

According to the campaign organizer, the young man does not have the financial means to pay this fine. A report from BalkanWeb, published on November 8, also expressed concern about his inability to meet this obligation.

Daniel Nikolla emphasizes that the funds collected will be used to reconstruct the apartment, so that Erindi and his family can have normal living conditions. In the campaign description, the family only asks for a dignified apartment, after the economic difficulties they have faced.

So far, contributions have exceeded 119 thousand pounds, about 12.8 million lekë, while the amount continues to be higher than the target set at the start of the initiative.
