In Loving Memory of Hana Lolić


After years of low-key but essential charity work, including providing food, shelter and medical supplies to vulnerable people in both his home country and neighboring Croatia, where he played his basketball before moving stateside, Jusuf launched his own foundation in 2020.


Emina is committed to and passionate about protecting and advocating for the rights of women and children and remains a champion of and for the health, wellness, and safety for all. Having grown up in Bosnia and Herzegovina and now living in the United States, she provides critical and valuable insight and input into the priorities, culture and systems of the Foundation.
Emina lives with her finacée, Jusuf, and enjoys traveling, spending time with family and friends.
