Foundation Promotie / Aid Transports to Romania

In addition to photos, Cristi from Botosani gave us an extensive explanation of where the goods we brought have ended up. He also emphasizes the importance of these of our aid transports once again. The war continues unabated, a solution is far from in sight. No one knows what will happen next, but we do know that the coming autumn and winter will make the lives of many people very difficult. Here the link to Cristi's message Here the link to photos of Cristi. Soon a truckload of potatoes and vegetables will be sent to the Ukraine via Cristi's depot in Botosani. An American organization is responsible for the costs of this. On Wednesday 24 August, our volunteers did pick-up and sorting work in our storage at 20 Dulleweg in Broek op Langedijk. On Wednesday 31 August we will load a trailer with destination Botosani, part of which will go back to the Ukraine. We hope that some additional food will become available.

Monday, August 15, the trailer we had loaded was unloaded in Botosani on Wednesday, August 10. Cristi and his team were very satisfied with the content there. The distribution started fairly quickly and later in the week, vans arrived from Ukraine again to pick up the items. It's great that we can help in this way, the question is very large, it is hard to imagine how many people are in trouble there. Here is the link to photos. Wednesday 17 August we loaded a truck with relief supplies with destination Breaza. A nice varied load, loading went smoothly with a small team. At 13 o'clock the truck was on its way to Romania, early Friday morning it was unloaded there after a journey of 2,000 kilometers. The pick-up jobs weren't a problem either. The importance of our work is only increasing everywhere poverty is increasing rapidly. In countries where this already happened often, the growth is fastest. Here the link to pictures of the loading. Here the link to pictures of the un...

It doesn't look like the war in Ukraine will be over anytime soon. Every day there are victims and it causes untold suffering. Yesterday I read a newspaper article about aid to refugees there, It makes clear how necessary and useful it is to keep sending relief supplies. Here is the link to this article. Wednesday we were able to put together a nice load with useful relief supplies. Three quarters of the trailer goes to Cristi in Botosani and from there partly into the Ukraine. A quarter of the trailer was unloaded last Friday afternoon at Reghina in Ticau. The loading went well, the driver who secured everything with straps and anti-slip mats. With a cargo that is square full, this is not a requirement, he probably had to deal with the German BAG or other law enforcement before. The pick-up jobs also went smoothly, everyone could go home on time. Here are the pictures of loading and unloading in Ticau. In Breaza they are busy with the distribution of the goods we have brought, pho...

We have had a relatively quiet week. On Wednesday August 3, despite the holiday period, fortunately enough volunteers showed up to load a trailer. This time with destination Breaza. The hospital beds from the De Daalder care center in Alkmaar, part of Magentazorg, are given a second life in Romania through our depot in Breaza. At 1 pm the truck left for Breaza where it was already unloaded on Friday afternoon. Imola and Csaba will start distribution next Monday. There were also pick-up jobs, this went well so everyone could go home on time. Here is the link to photos. Cristi from Botosani has again been able to load a number of vans with mainly food for aid to the victims of the war in the Ukraine.
