The end of year holidays are an ideal time to provide support and warmth to people in difficulty.
Here are some steps to organize a marauding campaign:
1. Preparation
-Form a team of volunteers
- Identify and identify the places and areas where you will help (streets, parks, stations)
-Plan the program (date, time, day) often in the evening.
2- Distribution of donations
-Food: hot meals, drinks, sweets
-Clothing: coats, scarves, gloves, blankets.
-Hygiene products: Soaps, toothbrushes, etc.
3- Create a festive moment
Give small gifts
(chocolates, greeting cards)
- Discuss: Plan warm exchanges: listening, talking about Jesus, meditating together, advising.
4- Respect
-Be kind and respect their privacy.
- Offer help without insisting
By acting together, you provide much more than material help: listening, human warmth, and kindness.
