Weekly update 15/21

On Tuesday, April 6, we were able to pick up hospital beds again at care center Zuyder Waert. It is starting to become routine, 20 will be ready again next Tuesday from 11 am.

Wednesday, April 7, a Romanian truck was loaded with destination Marghita, 50% unloaded at the farm, potatoes were loaded and unloaded at Marien Kroon in Floresti. Attila sent a few photos, he said that it is still freezing at night which is not good for the start of the growing season. Fortunately, according to weather online forecasts, things are looking a lot better for the coming period. In the near future, more potatoes will be sent from the farm to poor people through our contacts.

Here the link to a few photos.

Thursday afternoon, April 8, 50 bedside tables, a kidney dialysis machine and other medical items were collected from the Red Cross hospital in Beverwijk. All useful articles for healthcare in Romania, it was quite a job.

Friday, April 9, another nice batch of food arrived through the Manna Foundation. This can nicely serve as a supplement to the thousands of food packages made by our contacts in Romania. Making and distributing it is quite a job, but it also brings a lot of joy.

Reghina from Ticau again sent pictures.



Here the link to photos.




Toth Attila is one step closer with the opening of the new children's home in Peris.

Cristi from Botosani is also pushing ahead with the new construction, he sent pictures of the enormous amount of reinforcing steel they will be processing.

Imola has posted another post on their blog. Plenty of action there with help to people who need it. Last night she sent the sad message that a 51-year-old father has passed away from Covid. This while his wife and their disabled son are in intensive care, also infected with covid. The family staffed a relief station in Deda.

Next Wednesday we are going to load again for Breaza. We still have to be careful, so don't come to Dulleweg 20 without notice.

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.

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
