The seetal chile is once again taking part in this year's Christmas parcel drive for Eastern Europe. The parcels, which have to be put together exactly as specified, will be handed in at the youth centre between 5 and 19 November.

The war in Ukraine has exacerbated the economic misery in Eastern Europe and pushed many more inhabitants to the brink of subsistence. Christmas parcels from Switzerland, as a sign of sympathy and appreciation, are a relief from the gloom of everyday life. The joy of receiving food, sweets, hygiene products, school supplies and toys is immense.

The Christmas parcel campaign is organised by four Swiss aid organisations. Together, they collect the Christmas parcels and send them to Ukraine, Moldova, Romania, Belarus, Albania, Bulgaria and Kosovo. Local partners distribute them to needy children in schools and homes, impoverished families, single parents, pensioners, refugees and people with disabilities...

We at seetal chile are happy to take part in the campaign again this year... and everyone can join in, young and old. We cordially invite you to make one or more of these parcels. It's easy and brings great joy. Simply pack all the products listed on the flyer in a sturdy cardboard box (available in seetal chile from the end of October) and wrap it in strong wrapping paper. Please stick the appropriate label (adults or children) on your parcel and bring it to seetal chile 😊.

Thank you very much for taking part. The recipients will be delighted...
