The truck that was loaded on Thursday 20 May in Broek op Langedijk was unloaded on Monday 24 May in Breaza. It all went well again, the beds have gone to a care institution. The packages for Phoneo were also picked up immediately. Here the link to photos. Wednesday 26 May was a busy day, except for loading a truck (the 23rd in 2021) with destination Botosani, there were many pick-up jobs. Thanks to the efforts of our volunteers and the cooperation of Van den Heerik Transport, it all went well. On Saturday May 29, the truck arrived in Botosani without any problems and was unloaded there. Here is the link to photos. In Botosani, the construction of the Casa Ioana extension is progressing one step further. The distribution of aid supplies also continues. Last time I wrote about buying a cow for a gypsy family. Their cow had died unexpectedly and Cristi overheard this by accident. A cow has been bought, it seems to me a very good choice, a cross between a Jersey and a Romanian breed. Anoth

It's a bit of a strange time for me, I haven't been to our storage for a few weeks and despite that, two trucks with relief supplies have been shipped to Romania this week. This says something about the commitment and skills of our volunteers. The fact that I did not go to the storage is because I missed the last step of the stairs on the last day in our old house, resulting in an injury to my elbow. Now in a cast and on Monday 17 May an operation will follow to put the broken bone in its place. Not very smart, but yes it happened.

Henk himself has been in the Netherlands for a while. The lead in Deaj is now in the trusted hands of Viorel. The link to pictures of the loading. Loading went smoothly, but it was quite a job due to all the tidying up in the storage. In Amsterdam some repackag

Due to circumstances, no car was loaded in the past week, but pick-up jobs have been done and a lot of stuff has been brought. Our contacts in Romania again sent many photos of their activities. Cristi from Botosani sent a lot of handing out packages. And also of the construction activities of the extension of Casa Ioana, including the pouring of concrete donated by a local entrepreneur! As an extra, there was a gift from the Profi market, 18,000 eggs that had to be distributed quickly. Special things are happening there. Here the link to photos.
