On December 6, we gave gifts to people with disabilities in Budapest, and Santa Claus himself graced the food distribution event organized by our office in Eger with his presence to surprise the youngest members of families in need with a little treat. In P\u00e9cs, we also brought joy to children in need.<\/i><\/p>\n
According to tradition, the St. Nicholas Day surprise is actually associated with a Catholic bishop, and it has continued to bring children joy and excitement ever since. The bishop, who has since been canonized, wanted above all to bring joy to children from poor families by distributing gifts, so his actions are in line with our own goals.<\/p>\n
Every weekday, the Eger group distributes 300 servings of fresh, hot one-dish meals, along with bread and fruit, to local people in need, families, seniors, and the unemployed. Recipients take their lunch home in food containers so that the family can eat together. By making shared meals possible, this support also plays a role in keeping families together. For many, this is their only meal of the day. In addition to the regular food distribution, which begins every day at 3:00 p.m., Santa Claus also treated the children of the beneficiaries to sweets on this occasion.<\/p>\n
