Deliver Christmas presents to the elderly in Northwest

Warm Winter Weeks 2020

From December 1 to December 31 it is Warm Winter Weeks with NL Cares. During the month of December we organize countless calendar activities that ensure a festive warm winter for city residents who can use this well, and you can contribute to that! The Warm Winter Weeks 2020 are made possible in part by the RCOAK Foundation, Sluyterman van Loo, Reckitt Benckiser and the Municipality of Utrecht.

Activity

Have you always dreamed of playing a role as a Christmas elf? Then this is your chance! All kidding aside; if you participate in this activity, you will bring Christmas presents to lonely elderly people who are affiliated with Oog voor Utrecht. Volunteers bring a total of 165 Christmas presents to elderly people in the Northwest district. The gifts are made by people with a disability from Reinaerde and are financed from our Crowdfunding campaign.

Important: As a volunteer, bring a bicycle and a shopper or bicycle bags with you.

Target audience & impact

Older people have to endure extra hard in this Covid time. Because of this, it is important to reach them precisely with a gesture that warms their heart and lets them know that they are being thought of. Bringing a present is a small gesture with a big impact!
