The Kéretlen Figyelem Debreceni Nők Közéleti Egyesülete (Unwanted Attention Debrecen Women’s Civic Association) invites its guests once again to a warm meal and a warm welcome on the last Sunday of November 2024. The food distribution will take place on Sunday, November 24, 2024, from 10:30 AM to 11:30 AM at Petőfi Square, Debrecen, in front of the underpass.
We kindly ask our guests to wear face masks during the food distribution, considering the ongoing pandemic. Unfortunately, last month, there were so many people waiting for food that we couldn’t provide a warm meal to everyone. It was heartbreaking for all of us. Unfortunately, nothing miraculous happened in the past period; no wealthy Debrecen entrepreneur contacted us to support the association.
Only “ordinary people” heard our request. Thanks to their donations of a few thousand forints and the contributions of the association’s members, we can provide our guests with a meal. There is not a single penny of public money in our account. There never has been. Unfortunately, we are not wealthy people, so we can only provide food for 150 guests.
We are forced to distribute numbers, so those who come late may not get food. It’s hard to process all this, but unfortunately, we can’t do more. We sincerely turn to the citizens of the city to support us so that no hungry person from Debrecen goes home from Petőfi Square with an empty stomach. Believe us, giving is better than receiving.
We believe that the strength of a city is truly shown by how it treats its marginalized members.
We call on everyone who wants to help, with their hands or with financial support:
We are waiting for donations from Debrecen residents, primarily NON-PERISHABLE FOOD – in unlimited quantities, fruits, potatoes, oil, cleaning products; We are waiting for sweets, cakes, and toys for children; We are waiting for offers and participation from Debrecen restaurants, bakeries, and grocery stores.
