Weekly update 33/22

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.

Henk Muller is still working on his recovery and is taking it easy. It is impossible to do nothing at all, he is important for the people in his environment. Every day he receives reasonable as well as unreasonable requests for help. It will not always be easy having to make choices again and again. Henk came to us with the request to make it possible to renovate a house. Fortunately, we were able to cancel here. In the photo book below the photos including the explanation.

Here is the link to the photos with explanation.

From Ticau came pictures of the handing out by Reghina.

Toth Attila from Peris has taken in new residents again. It is good that these children also have a chance at a better future. The photos speak for themselves, there are now so many children living there that extra help is needed.

Virorel from Deaj sent pictures with explanatory text. Well done and meaningful again.

Elena the social worker of the village of Urmenis made sandwiches for families there
during the summer holidays. Really needed for these people, we are glad we could support this. We have known Elena for many years and have gained a lot of respect for her way of working and as a person. If all social workers would do their job like Elena, Romania would look very different.

There is no truck to load on Wednesday, but there are the necessary pick-up jobs.

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...

Another great week behind us with a lot of work done. On Wednesday, April 3, there were collection and clean-up jobs and stock from our temporary storage was brought back to the Dulleweg. On Thursday, April 4, there was a clothing campaign in a store in Heerhugowaard. And on Friday April 6, two trucks came to load. As a result, all the last 2.600 Easter packages are now on their way to Romania. A few photos of the loading. Csaba from Breaza has been busy delivering the first shipment of packages. The Phoneo Foundation from Reghin allows him to use a very handy van for this purpose. Many packages have already been delivered to people's homes. The rumors are spreading fast and he has already received questions: when are you coming to us? The poorest people are hungry, difficult for us to imagine, but in some communities, especially Gypsy communities, this is simply a fact. Here is the link to photos of Csaba and Imola. Józsi and his team from the soup kitchen for children in Tirgu Mu...

Yesterday Nico and I returned home safely from a useful and interesting trip to Romania. The main goal was to discuss the progress and the start of the season on the farm in Marghita with Attila. We were lucky with the weather, it was really spring, and the sowing and planting was in full swing. A beautiful period when you see what happens until the harvest period. I have often written that farmers in Romania are having a hard time due to... the low prices they receive for their products. Unfortunately, quite a few are now in danger of going under. Attila buys a large part of his planting material from a company in Hungary. A modern and large company that grows seeds into small plants under optimal conditions. During the tour we received, I asked, among other things, how future-proof this activity is. The answer was simple – as long as people continue to eat, this will continue. Enough ideas were discussed, the future will show what will become reality. Here is the link to photos. More...
