We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Carpathian Crew
Before Santa Claus and the Christmas season, the Carpathian Foundation launched a campaign to draw attention to the situation of families and children living in poverty and deprivation. However, this time our awareness-raising campaign was not a fundraising or a communication campaign, but a close cooperation with active communities, NGOs, hospitals and other institutions working in the Northeast Hungarian region: 5000 socially and economically disadvantaged children were given a package of toys.
This is the title of a study commissioned by the Carpathian Foundation and its cross-border partner, Karpatska nadácia, which provides a thorough overview of the characteristics, results and shortcomings of early childhood interventions, services and programs in Hungary and Slovakia (especially in the Hungarian-Slovak border region).
We would like to thank TESCO Department Store (of Eger) for supporting us with nearly 100,000 HUF this year. The amount offered was used to support families and children who got into financially problematic situation due to coronavirus pandemic. They could buy durable food, school supplies, cleaning and disinfection products from the donation. The donation was distributed to families in need, with the help of our local partners, CSOs operating in and around Eger!
Thank you, TESCO!
