This December, Mogyi will help nearly 85,000 needy people
Mogyi donated 5,000 cartons worth more than HUF 40 million to needy families, children and the elderly through the Hungarian Red Cross and the Hungarian Food Bank Association. Nearly 85,000 people receive the products nationwide: the Hungarian Red Cross delivers a total of 24,000 packages of snacks to 18,000 needy people, and the Hungarian Food Bank Association distributes the company’s products to 66,000 people, including 11,000 children living in poverty.
In recent weeks, Mogyi Kft. delivered 156,000 bags of peanut and sunflower seed snacks to the Hungarian Red Cross and the Hungarian Food Bank Association across the country in order to donate to needy families, needy children and the elderly with the help of the organizations.
This year, the number of requests for help increased even before the heating season
“Every year, the winter months represent the greatest difficulty for people in need, as heating expenses rise significantly at this time and many families have problems, for example, providing their children with warm clothes or replacing medicines and extra vitamins. This year, we noticed that even before the heating period, people with a more difficult fate began to apply, and the high proportion of households with several children, single-parent families and the elderly is particularly worrying.”
– said András Nagygyörgy, director of external relations of the Hungarian Food Bank Association.
He added that, in the last two months of the year, the Food Bank wants to distribute at least half a million food packages to people in a difficult situation, which it can achieve, for example, with the help of companies such as Mogyi.
