On March 6, the Food for Life team held a special food distribution event in Szolnok. We last organized a similar event in October, and we were happy to return to offer our help once again. On this occasion, 209 people in need received a package of non-perishable food items, while for lunch Szekler cabbage and fruit-flavored halava We served it.

The charity event was organized by the The Szolnok Human Services Family and Child Welfare Institution’s We held it in the courtyard, where 75 families received food packages. Among the beneficiaries There were 100 adults and 109 children, in addition 25 packages for the day care center for psychiatric patients We delivered it to them.

Emese Mátyus, a staff member at the family support center, welcomed the collaboration and assured us that we can count on them to provide the venue at any time in the future. She explained that the majority of those receiving assistance are not homeless, but rather people who do not receive disability benefits and can no longer find work. For them, the food donation is truly life-saving assistance.

During the afternoon meal distribution 11 volunteers participated, and in just one hour We were able to serve everyone present. The Szolnok team maintains close ties with the volunteers in Békéscsaba, so when food is being distributed in Békéscsaba, the people from Szolnok make up a significant portion of the volunteer staff.

Málini Devi Das, the main organizer of the event, said that three generous donors With its help, we were able to 75 packages of non-perishable food compile, nine kinds of product. He added that over the past six months, the purchase cost of identical products It rose by 40,000 forints, which clearly illustrates the steady rise in food prices—and thus the need for assistance increasingly justified.
