Thank you to all the volunteers and each individual for playing along with us for children's ophthalmology, which is the target of this year's collection. As always, we ask you - take care of yourself. Your safety is the most important thing for us!
Conduct your fundraising in safe areas - don't venture into areas that are not well frequented, poorly lit or considered unsafe.
Keep your mobile phones fully charged (!) so that you can always contact your parents, relatives, staff members, other volunteers or, in the case of an emergency, the emergency services.
Don't go out and collect money alone. It is always safer in a group and it is also more fun. Remember that volunteers under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
If you need help, ask the police or municipal wardens. You can report directly to them about your safety during the collection. Sometimes you may be asked by police officers how your collection is going. Do not be afraid, it is for your safety.
Remember also to stay safe on the road - walk properly, wear reflective clothing or tags, cross the road in designated places.
The campaign lasts all day long, but if you are tired, cold, your donation box is wet or overflowing, you can stop the collection and go to the headquarters to settle the account. Hand it over to the person in charge of counting the money and wait for it to be counted and for all the formalities to be completed.
Dear volunteers, during the collection within the 30th Finale of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity remember about the currently applicable recommendations and sanitary-epidemiological regulations connect to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The merry tunes of the Great Orchestra reach the world's ends! Our melody of solidarity and friendship will once again play across the globe thanks to our amazing volunteers. What are the colours of the wind coming from both the poles?
Traditionally, on Fridays just before the Grand Finale fundraiser, the GOCC Foundation hosts a press conference to sum up the preparations for the annual collection. Jurek Owsiak will present all our initiatives, actions, and activities as we prepare to celebrate another edition of the joyous celebration of kindness!
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!
