Help the homeless: call for donations for sleeping bags in Berlin!

in Berlin the situation for homeless people is dramatic: the clothing store of the Berlin city mission is undersupplied, the shelves are empty. On Saturday, December 7th, a large fundraising campaign will be organized in the Wilma shopping center in Charlottenburg. From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Berliners are asked to give up urgently needed sleeping bags and isoles. For many homeless people, these articles are vital for many homeless people to protect themselves on the cold nights. According to the Berlin city mission, the demand for sleeping bags is enormous and the supplies are terrifyingly low, which forces many to sleep in the open air - a situation that is hard to bear at zero temperatures.

urgent need for donations

The campaign is not only organized to fill the empty shelves, but also to show a special recognition: the first 40 donors receive a shopping voucher. At the same time, all donations are first processed in the text lamer, the sorting area of ​​the city mission, where the articles are checked for their suitability. Everything that meets the needs of homeless people is processed and provided in the clothing store in Lehrter Strasse. Alternatively, donations that cannot be used directly find their way into the neighborhood shops whose proceeds will benefit social projects, as reported on the website of the Berlin city mission.

Homelessness is a pressing problem that now has to be addressed more urgently. The Berlin city mission therefore calls for solidarity and hopes for numerous donations from the population to help those affected the most affected in this cold season.
