Over 100 postal families will receive Christmas packages from the "Pocztowy Dar" Foundation
As every year, in the pre -Christmas period, the "Pocztowy Dar" Foundation organizes a fundraiser that will be allocated to the purchase of the most necessary items for postal families. The aim of the campaign is to help the postcards and their loved ones, who were in a difficult life situation. This year, over 100 families will receive support.
The "Postal Star" campaign aims to help post families in a difficult life situation. Beneficiaries of support that postcards have been provided by the Foundation for three years, are employees or their relatives, excluded from professional activity by serious illnesses or injured by random events. The Foundation helps, among others For many children, with chronically sick children, as well as those in which, due to the serious illness or disability of one of the household members, only one person can work. Post -school homes are also concerned, in which cancer appeared, requiring expensive treatment.
The "Postal Dar" Foundation receives information from all over Poland about families who need support and a kind of needs. Each case is treated individually. A collection of funds is organized on the basis of the resulting list. Thanks to the financial support of the postcard, as well as sacrificial payments from 1% for 2020, the Foundation is preparing Christmas material parcels. Most often they contain everyday items, shop vouchers, household appliances, furniture, heating devices, computer equipment for remote learning for children or so needed now - fuel for winter. However, material assistance is not a rule.
It is worth emphasizing that postalists who need healthcare can count on the support of the Foundation - and not only during the holiday season - in the field of funding for treatment, medicines or rehabilitation.
An important complement to the help of "Postal Gift" is the direct gesture of the company's employees themselves. Postcards, which very often combine deep ties with the needy, also prepare gifts themselves and pass them on to selected families.
- Thank you to the postal for every zloty, commitment and nobility. Each of us has our own problems, but helping others is proof that we think not only about ourselves and we can share good with others. And doing good can not only bring satisfaction, but also often comes back to us-says Bogusława Kłoda-Dębska, president of the "Postal Dar" Foundation.
The collection of the "Pocztowy Dar" Foundation is not the only form of support for the needy postalists at Christmas. In many regions of the country, Christmas packages are created from funds accumulated in the Company Social Benefits Fund. Their recipients are usually children of employees who remain in a difficult financial situation.
It is worth recalling that, regardless of the help of the "Postal Dar" Foundation or support within the Social Fund, Poczta Polska will pay all employees in the company's collective labor system a Christmas supplement in the amount of PLN 500 gross through Christmas.
