MLS organized in December 2021 a local campaign for collection of old clothes and toys. The campaign was organized within the Steps4Lead project. As agreed on the training that local action needs to be made that would tackle in the same time lowering the trash and waste of products/items that are in good condition and can be still used, and use those same items/products for families that can not afford to purchase such things, but are in need for them. As a result, the team made, during the training course, organized a pick up place for clothes for children, women and men, and for toys.
The campaign was successful, as the team gathered more products than planned. The beneficiaries were already identified in advance and we knew the type and size of clothes they needed. So beside the packages planned for the families (clothes and some other toys), we also gave toys in kindergarten to a group aged 3-4 years old.
