According to organizers, the focus of this year’s drive will be needy families, poor workers and beneficiaries of social policies. Participants will prepare food and make decorations typical of the festival for those recipients, along with cleaning work to ensure a good living environment.
Besides, volunteers will organize activities for children at social welfare centres and encourage youngsters to have a civilized way of life, especially during the festival which will start early next month.
