Baptist Charity Service: Needy families receive 24 million forints in donations with the help of Lidl
Thanks to Lidl customers, families in need will receive nearly 24 million forints in donations – the Baptist Charity Service announced in a statement.
In two weeks, 15.5 million forints worth of food donation vouchers and nearly 8.4 million forints in cash donations were collected in Lidl Hungary stores thanks to customers. From the amount collected and the vouchers, the Baptist Charity Service will deliver 31 tons of food packages to 2,500 families in difficult situations before the holidays.
Lidl Hungary is supporting families in difficult situations with two campaigns this year before Christmas. On the one hand, it joined the Baptist Charity Service’s fundraising campaign, and thus customers could purchase food donation vouchers worth 500, 800 or 1,000 forints in any Lidl store in Hungary.
Customers purchased 15.5 million forints worth of vouchers, which the Baptist Charity Service exchanged for food and delivered to families in need before Christmas.
In addition, the department store chain also helped families in need with its own charity campaign. Customers could use a Lidl Plus coupon to get a discount on the plush raccoon that also appears in the discount chain’s Christmas commercial, the price of which the company donated entirely to charity.
With the campaign, Lidl collected nearly 8.4 million forints, which it handed over to the Baptist Charity Service. The organization used this amount to buy food, which will also help families in need before the holidays.
