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!
Hundreds of participants wearing our original orange T-shirts? It's a signature feature of our "Get Even with Diabetes" Run! We will hold the 18th stationary edition of the run in the streets of Warsaw on 28 January. However, the virtual run starts today! You can still register online and add your time to the pool!
Lidia Niedźwiedzka-Owsiak, who is the director of the medical division of the GOCC Foundation, was awarded an Honoris Causa at the Poznań University of Medical Sciences. This recognition was given in appreciation of her commitment to upholding the highest standards in healthcare.
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!
