Weekly update 9/21


On Tuesday, pictures from Marghita were taken in the container with bakery that we brought there. The first loaves of bread look good and people are enthusiastic. The intention is that poor people get good bread for free or at least cheaply. Together with Paul, we will work on the implementation of this and ensure that it will be a successful project. The basis is there.

Attila sent a few more pictures of the wheat, it looks completely yellow, if it starts to grow with warmer weather, this weather is expected. That the pandemic continues and that does not make life easier for a farmer.

Like many others, I would like to see it again with my own eyes there. It is not easy to have patience, but there is little choice. Our foundation's first senior volunteer has received an invitation to get vaccinated.

John Fracker sent a few photos via Imola, does not give a complete picture of the situation in people of the burned house.

On Wednesday we loaded another truck with a very diverse load, on Friday it was unloaded in Breaza. Imola has written another piece on her blog.

It is still difficult for Cristi to find a freezer trailer to load the frozen food in Amsterdam. 

Here the link to photos from Cristi.

The house building project of Reghina has started energetically, the first two are wind and waterproof. Unfortunately, the mayor of the village has temporarily halted construction, first agreements have to be made about overdue tax. After a conversation with Reghina and the mayor, the “cold” seems to have disappeared again and we will soon be able to continue. The now unregistered residents of the huts now receive a house number and are included in the administration of the municipality. This also gives them rights, which is a positive development.

Henk Muller also sent pictures again, he and his team are also trying to develop vegetables to help people
there. Also nice to see is the work of the Romanian aid workers, there are people everywhere who want to help someone else.

Priority number 1 is loading a freezer trailer in Amsterdam, this really has to be done next week. Then there are many collection jobs for hospital beds and inventory, this on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Our volunteers are all eager to work, but we must be and remain careful. Do not come to Dulleweg unannounced.

On Tuesday, February 21, we were able to collect more than 3.000 kg of seed potatoes from farmers in the Wieringermeer, a nice gesture from these kind people. Henk Muller from Band can enjoy his garden projects again. There is also plenty for the gardens in and around Breaza. On Wednesday we were able to load them immediately, together with hospital beds, apples, some cake and other food. Another nice load that arrived in Breaza on Friday evening and was unloaded on Saturday morning. Wednesday was busy with repacking work and loading and collecting, it all ended up on its feet again. Here is the link to pictures of the loading. Here the link to pictures of the unloading in Breaza. Reghina from Ticau has been busy again making packages and handing them out. Here is the link to photos. Like every week, Henk Muller is busy offering help to his fellow man. Handing out goods, leading a youth club, building houses and surroundings. improve, you have to have a lot of energy to keep this up. H

Last week we shipped a trailer that will cover part of the route to Breaza by train. This concerns the stretch from Cologne to Arad, the trailer went on the train in Cologne and in Arad another tractor picks it up again for the last stretch to Breaza. We want to gain experience with this and thus avoid the crowds and controls at the Hungary/Romania border. On Wednesday, February 14, the loading of this trailer went well, there was quite a bit of repacking work and we were able to load a beautifully varied trailer with relief goods. The driver had to wait a little longer for his papers, Mission & Relief from Zevenhuizen produced additional documents. At 1:30 PM the driver headed to the terminal in Cologne. I don't know (yet) where the trailer is, we'll hear more about this early next week. Here is the link to photos. There were still some collection jobs, this was also the case on Monday just like last Friday. The warehouse is therefore still well filled. Next week we will l

On Wednesday we were able to load another truck with relief supplies. This time for Marghita and Ticau. We had quite a bit of stock so that we could put together a nice shipment again. We were extra careful with loading so that we would not have any problems at the border. This extra work has been useful, this truck crossed the border between Hungary and Romania without any problems on Friday. Besides loading the truck, there was plenty to do on Wednesday, for example we received a batch of lentils in large packaging. This can be done in small plastic pots that we have had in stock for some time. Also picking up stuff and cleaning up, another day well spent. Here is the link to photos. At the end of the afternoon on Friday, most of this cargo was unloaded in Marghita and potatoes and vegetables were loaded there for Ticau. There is a very good harvest on the farm, mainly due to Attila's craftsmanship and the efforts of his team. Sales are difficult due to the greatly reduced purcha
