Our activity
Our organization coordinates the collection and distribution of thousands of schoolbags all over the country. Any parent who is interested in a school bag for his child can receive it for free. All the bags are checked, washed and are in mint condition.
This is a great solution that serves both social and environmental goals. There is no reason to throw away a schoolbag which was only in use for a singe year. In fact, it's really a win-win situation. By joining our activities, the kids learn the value of donating and recycling.
How It Works?
The children, accompanied by their parents, arrive at the distribution points
to collect the bags.
At this stage, the organization supports the activity, accompanies the responsible contact person, and sets distribution dates in each local municipal authority.
The contact responsible for the local activity coordinates the collection of the bags in his area and post about it on social media.
The organization cooperates with a local municipal authority or private individuals who wish to lead the volunteer activity in their area of residence.
