Abstract

Based on archival materials, the Russian emigrant press, as well as literature, the article discusses the engagement of emigrants from Russia, who arrived from 1919 to 1923 in the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (from 1929 — Kingdom of Yugoslavia), in charity work with an aim to provide the assistance to their compatriots living in the country during the interwar period. The paper attempts to shed light on various aspects of their work, and its versatility. It is noted that in emigrant society a considerable number of organizations, institutions, associations — from public, humanitarian to political, military — as well as individuals, were engaged in charity work.
