Museums across the country have been asked to help deliver the parcels to families in rural areas.
“A nationwide collaboration has been formed at our call, and the gifts will be taken to every county, where the parents can receive them. It has become a tradition that we launch a Christmas fundraising campaign every year, the aim of which is to help at least 400 families of single parents living in difficult situations in different counties of the country spend the holidays happier,” the Single Parent Center said in their statement.
To help deliver the gifts, a campaign called Museums for Single Parents was launched this year, museums from different counties in the country have been invited to be Christmas ambassadors of the Single Parent Centre, delivering the gift packages in their own towns.
All the museums have accepted the invitation, so we can send a parcel to single-parent families in every county.
On Monday, the ambassadors took delivery of the Single Parent Centre Christmas parcels to 200 single-parent families in rural areas before Christmas.
Anna Nagy, Head of the Single Parent Centre, said in her welcome speech that “nearly 40 percent of single-parent families live in difficult financial situations. As the festive season approaches, they face increasing questions about how to manage this period. With the help of our supporters, we want to make this time easier for these families.”
