25,000 packages of donations will reach people in need as a result of the 2025 Joy of Giving! fundraising campaign

“This year’s collection has once again proven the immense power of collaboration. Behind the personally donated food and the support received from donation cards are people who think of those who have a much harder time during the holidays. We are grateful to every customer who contributed even with a single product to enable us to put together 25,000 packages this year, because the packages contain not only food, but also the personal care of the donors. The same thanks go to our thousands of volunteers who have worked tirelessly in stores, warehouses and on deliveries to ensure that donations reach the homes of the needy before the holidays. “We are proud that with our strategic partner, the Hungarian Maltese Charity Service, we were able to show again this year what a strong and human community has formed among the customers of SPAR stores. Behind the donations is real attention and care, which carries the true essence of the holiday. We thank all donors and all volunteers for passing on what the holiday really means: attention, care and the power of turning to others,” emphasized Márk Maczelka, the communications manager of SPAR Hungary. “The food packages made from personal and online donations will leave the warehouses of the Charity Service for various regions of the country, primarily to communities where the burdens of everyday life pose a particularly great challenge.” The contents of the packages – non-perishable staple foods, canned goods, sweets, pasta, rice, cooking oil and other essential products – provide real, immediate help in preparing a hot meal and making the holiday season easier.
