Two stories of many – every little helps!
With her 3 children and partner Krisztina rents a flat where is no driking water or bathroom and heating is only possible with a stove. Her partner used to work abroad but when the coronavirus pandemic resulted lockdowns he could not go home for months. From January until July the family could not count with his income so Krisztina provided the family from a 25.000 HUF government subsidy for half year. In the meantime she received aid packages twice which contained food and nutritional supplement. Krisztina has been visiting the Safe Start House since 2019 and she was very happy when the programmes restarted as the strict lockdowns softened: the kids could take the catering provided by the programme, use the children’s hygiene products and the laundry opportunities.
