On Saturday 9th of April, we together with Rotarians and Welzijn Scheveningen joined our forces to help Ukraine.
Part of our team was standing in front of two grocery stores to ask people to buy food or other goods, such as diapers, soaps, candles and matches, for Ukraine.
Others were driving the van to collect the goods and to sort them in different boxes so that in the later stage it’s easier to find what you’re looking for.
The people doing groceries were very generous and all in all, we collected 95 boxes!!

Thank you to everyone who participated!
