This year, the Poczta Polska Group Foundation and Poczta Polska formally partnered with the WIOSNA Association for the first time. With the Weekend of Miracles behind us, we took a look at how we helped those in need this year.
The aforementioned collaboration resulted in, among other things, the issuance of a joint stamp and the launch of an employee volunteering program within our Group. This gave postal workers the opportunity to participate directly in preparing and delivering aid to families in need. Furthermore, Poczta Polska has made its warehouse space available at the Komorniki sorting facility near Poznań for storing the Noble Parcel donations, significantly facilitating the logistics of the campaign.
Last weekend was one of the most important moments of the year for the Noble Parcel. It was during the Weekend of Miracles that the completed parcels were delivered to warehouses, from where – thanks to volunteers – they will be distributed to families across Poland.
For 14 years, WER Komorniki has been providing Christmas support to volunteers preparing parcels as part of the Noble Parcel campaign. This year, RL Zachód provided, among other things, operational space for this initiative, which is crucial to the project's success.
On December 12 and 13 of this year, 20 volunteers near Poznań helped prepare packages for 120 families. The average value of the packages for a single family is approximately PLN 3,500-4,000. An estimated 20 donors contributed to the packages for each family, and the average number of smiles each package brings is in the millions.
At the West Community Center in Komorniki, a donation drive was held for the sixth time, at the initiative of Katarzyna Czajka. This year, the generosity of donors supported two families: a single mother from Kartuzy, raising six children, and a 65-year-old woman with three sons and a disabled daughter, who runs a small farm, some of whose property burned down earlier this year.
We also extend our thanks to Anna Kunkel of Gdańsk. Thanks to her initiative, we were able to prepare 71 packages.
