Hungarian Cooperation for those Effected by Flooding

Written by civitas Monday, 02 August 2010 11:31

 

 

 

The Hungarian National Council of Transylvania, the Hungarian Youth Council, the Transylvanian Hungarian Youth and the Providence Charity Organization have organized a multi-organizational cooperative project beginning from June 4, 2010 for the purpose of providing assistance to those who have been impacted by flooding in Hungary. Additional organizations have also joined our effort.

 

In the past several weeks we have been successful in helping with emergency relief for our fellow Hungarians who have been impacted by the recent floods, organizing both financial and in-kind gifts as well as volunteer work projects. Starting today, a one-week children’s camp is being organized in Várfalva, in the Aranyosszék region, in which youth from Hungary whose communities have suffered from the flooding there will gather together with Transylvanian Hungarian youth. The camp, with over 100 participants, will be followed by a later similar event in Székelykeresztúr in August. You can find reports about our prior relief activities on the www.gondviseles.org web site.

Its our turn for helping!

Written by civitas Friday, 25 June 2010 20:15

In the context of the floods that occurred in Northern-Hungary in the period of May-June 2010, we remembered the unprecedented national solidarity action that was started five years ago, by our fellow Hungarians living in the Carpathian Basin, when a similar catastrophe happened at Udvarhely Seat.

Many people helped out, everyone to the extent of their own capacity, and we formed a helping community, represented by a true Hungarian solidarity. Never have or could such social, human relationships develop, as they did at that time.
