The target of the project-to promote a civil tolerance and create a co-responsibility supporting Ukrainians, to activate and involve the society in contributions of the support provided to them. The main necessity is to increase an activity of the donation centre to support as many people as possible. At the moment (for the 5th Year )the donation centre ‘’Gūt var dodot’’ (To gain by giving) is supporting and helping people who due to different circumstances are in need for that. The centre can provide with clothes, footwear, bedding, curtains, towels, kitchen utensils, furniture, cosmetics, cleaning products, electrical goods. Everyone in need can get this help- single parents, disabled persons, large families, people with low income, homeless, refugees etc. Now is a large demand for help since the start of the war in Ukraine. This centre will be opened 4 days a week instead of 2 during this project. We should involve more employees as the work has doubled due to arrival of refugees from Ukraine. Sometimes we have to work at weekends and after working hours to get all done. We will be able to support more people if we can train more employees and expand our working hours during this project. Meanwhile we are preparing and handing out all kinds of information about options for Ukrainian people- how to aplly for all assistance needed (like- working permit, residence, benefits and other help from government and volunteers). Duration of the project-8 months.
