Gurkerl starts a fundraising campaign for children in crisis areas!

The online supermarket Gurkerl sets a powerful sign of disadvantaged children in crisis areas with its new fundraising campaign "Give opportunities". This initiative, which runs until March 31, 2025, enables customers in the Vienna region to donate directly to Caritas Austria's education projects. You can use the "online voucher" function to select amounts of 5, 15, 30 or 50 euros. The collected funds flow completely into the support of programs that enable children to have a better future in need, such as kathpress.at reported.

This fundraising campaign is part of the current Caritas children's campaign, which aims to raise awareness of child rights and access to education. As part of an additional initiative "Caritas-Schulbrot", the sale of products from the Waldviertel organic bakery Joseph Brot is also funded, the revenues of which also support education projects. According to Caritas, around 251 million children cannot go to school worldwide due to war, natural disasters or poverty. In 2023, Caritas reached around 156,000 children and young people with its programs. The actions of Gurkerl should be made aware of these critical grievances in order to be able to effectively help the needy, so ots.at .
