“Christmas in a box” – Social Volunteer Engagement for People in Need (Austria)

Social Volunteering

Volunteers from New Acropolis Austria collected a total of 420 shoe boxes full of gifts for people in need. Together with 11 partner organizations (homeless shelters, social markets, medical services, kindergartens, etc.) in six different cities, products such as warm clothing, food, sanitary products or toys were donated to homeless people, women or children people in need. In many cases the gifts were delivered personally. This beautiful experience for both volunteers and beneficiaries demonstrated once again the importance of human interaction.
