Zharity is back with a call to fulfill "wishes" from families served by HPF Winterthur, an early childhood program for kids with disabilities. Many of the families HPF serves do not have the resources to easily buy toys and other items for their children. HPF staff pass along family wish lists that we aim to fill through the Zharity network.
Here are details:
What: Legos, Playmobil, Play kitchens, TrippTrapps....you name it. Please see our list of items and sign-up instructions.
When: Until June 15th
Where: Zharity volunteers are offering locations in different parts of the city. Locations for non-contact drop-offs are in Glattpark (Opfikon), Horgen, Hottingen (Zurich). Once you sign up we will give the address that best fits you! If the items are ordered online we can provide the mailing address to have the items shipped directly to the organization.
Just a note of appreciation: After our February collection for HPF we quickly went into lockdown, and couldn't get everything immediately delivered. We later found a way to pass along the donations - via no contact - to HPF offices. I just want to pass along that the staff and families were absolutely thrilled. Your donations of toys, bikes, and clothes were especially meaningful and well-appreciated as they provided a bounty of activities for children and families while staying at home. Many thanks, you all!
