In the current crisis situation, Christmas is of particular importance, the most joyful time of the year for those who are lucky. But we know that this is not the case for many who live in difficult circumstances. That’s why the Józsefváros Municipality is organising a fundraising campaign again this year, as is tradition, turning to the community of the district, to support those in need so their holiday can be special too.
The fundraiser will put food on the holiday table for those in need. Last year’s fundraiser was able to help many, many singles and families thanks to the combined efforts of the residents of Józsefváros.
Let’s show that together we can make Christmas a cosy time for everyone in our community!

Durable food (flour, sugar, pasta, oil)
