PLN 14 million for children's ophthalmology
On 5 December, we organized the 68th Open Tender dedicated to the aim of the 30th Grand Finale of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity, i.e. paediatric ophthalmology.
All hands on deck - it seems that this saying, which became the motto of our most recent (and record-breaking) fundraiser, is more relevant than ever. As Poland attempts to slow down the Covid-19 infection rate by self-isolation, some people - especially those with underlying conditions, and elderly citizens, might require help with day-to-day tasks. That's when our Peace Patrol volunteers and Collection Centre activists come to offer their support.
We decided to launch a service which allows people to request help. Once their request has been approved, their location is added to our interactive map and volunteers in the area can respond to the request!

Months of preparation, thousands of events around the world and hundreds of thousands of people involved. The 32nd Finale of GOCC is just around the corner! In Warsaw, the Orchestra's heart will be beating the loudest at PGE Narodowy meadows. It is here Jurek Owsiak summed up preparations for the next edition of the fundraising.
The registration of Collection Centres, i.e. hubs of volunteers organizing the Grand Finale events for their local community, is now over. Collection Centres will be actively participating in the 32nd Grand Finale fundraiser across Poland and in 101 locations around the world!
