At Christmas, most people plan to donate to sick, disadvantaged or difficult children, according to a recent national representative survey of Yettel Christmas customs. Many people want to know exactly what the recipient needs and what the donation will be used for. In a joint campaign, the mobile operator and Baptist Charity Service are now drawing attention to how donations can be simple and traceable.

Yettel surveyed Hungarians’ Christmas customs for the fifth time this year, from keeping in touch through gift-giving to donating.[1] In relation to the latter, they examined, among other things, whether respondents planned to donate and, if so, who they would support, with what means and with what amount.

Three-quarters of respondents usually donate or volunteer. Compared to last year, the number of those who only donate money, in-kind donations or services has increased slightly. The number of those who both donate and volunteer has decreased slightly (39% vs. 34%). Exclusive volunteering is typical of only 1% of respondents.

The amount of monetary donations offered on an occasion has decreased slightly compared to last year. This year, a quarter of donors (26%) give over five thousand forints on an occasion, compared to one third last year. The majority (58%) still donate between one thousand and five thousand forints to those in need on an occasion.
