Thank you!

 

Today we celebrate the brave hearts of all the volunteers! A thousand time thank you for your efforts, time, and energy to support a higher cause! The Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity Foundation is – above all – the volunteers.

It is thanks to your passion and initiative that we may run all the activities. Your creativity and generosity warms up hearts even in the midst of the coldest winter.

 

 

Voluntary service is not just an adventure and a good deed. It is also an invaluable life lesson for the future, when we learn to organize and give a part of us to build something – something very tangible. Being a volunteer is a wonderful history, and today on the occasion of the International Volunteer Day, we would love to thank, as it turns out, millions of volunteers who were and still are the Peace Patrol crew and the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity! - Jurek Owsiak
