Every month, disadvantaged young children are given food packages in three counties

Disadvantaged children under age 3 receive monthly food packages in Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg, Hajdú-Bihar és Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén counties with the support of a European Union-funded program – the Minister of State of the Ministry of Human Resources said on Tuesday at a press conference in Vásárosnamény.
