Question 1

Where can I find the families?

Accepted Answer

Ask local care providers such as the center for youth and families, social organizations, outpatient youth care providers, municipalities and church councils, for example.
 
They often know families who could really use it. Also agree with these organizations whether it is possible for the intermediaries to deliver the packages to the families.

Question 2

Who selects the families and on what criteria?

Accepted Answer

The intermediaries of the organizations involved make a decision as to who would best receive a package.
This may be 1 organization that selects 5 families, but it can of course also be 5 organizations that each select 1 family. There are no criteria other than that one could really use some support. There is no income test.

Question 3

Will I hear anything back from the families?

Accepted Answer

Ask the intermediaries if they can provide feedback on how the package was received. The reactions will be heart-warming and moving. Share this with your team so that they also know why it was done.

Question 4

When will the package be delivered?

Accepted Answer

Try to deliver the packages on the Monday (December 20) or Tuesday (December 21) before Christmas. This way you can add fresh items on the last day.
