THE SOLIDARITY CHRISTMAS OF SALUTE E SVILUPPO

The Christmas season is just around the corner, but the initiatives of 2023 are not yet over, and there is a way to continue supporting us: on 28 November the annual Christmas market will be held at the CRAL degli Operatori Socio Sanitari del Rhodense exhibition centre, with a wide selection of Christmas gifts and home accessories, all handmade with lots of love and imagination by our volunteers.

 

It will be the ideal opportunity to support our initiatives and to discover the world of Salute e Sviluppo, which is enriched with new activities every year. It will be easy to discover them all thanks to the Salute e Sviluppo 2024 calendar: 12 colourful months each dedicated to one of the projects we inaugurated and followed during 2023.

There will also be our iconic pencils with marigold seeds at the top: a symbol of solidarity that can always flourish thanks to sustainable development projects and continued commitment. All proceeds from this day will go to our missions in the Central African Republic and Burkina Faso, two of the poorest countries in the world, which constantly require care and attention.

We have the will to pursue our fundamental mission: to improve the living conditions of all those who are in the greatest difficulty! We can do this thanks to the help of our volunteers and the generosity of all those who have decided and will decide to approach our cause.

If you would also like to support us, visit us in Rho or otherwise write to us at info@salutesviluppo.it or on our social channels, we will always be happy to answer you and welcome you into the world of Salute e Sviluppo!

 

EASTER IS HERE: MAKE SOLIDARITY FLOURISH AGAIN

Easter is near, next 9 April will be Resurrection Day. Along with Easter, spring is also blossoming, symbolising nature reborn after the cold of winter. What better time for solidarity to flourish?

On 28 March, at the exhibition venue of the CRAL degli Operatori Socio Sanitari in Rho, there will be an opportunity to buy many nice items – from Easter packages for children to embroidery and sewing works – made by the many volunteers who have been supporting Salute e Sviluppo for years.

Along with all these items will also be our plantable pencils!

At the top of each pencil are a few marigold seeds, ready to give birth to beautiful, colourful flowers. We have chosen this flower, with its many healing and soothing properties, to symbolise all the health-related activities that we inaugurate year after year all over the world.

Thanks to your support we will be able to engage in more and more initiatives! Don’t miss this opportunity to help us, all proceeds from the Easter market next 28 March in Rho will go to support the Camillian missions in Africa.

If you also want the Health and Development pencil, write to us on Facebook, Instagram or at our email address.

Salute e Sviluppo is grateful for every small or large contribution from all those who commit themselves by standing by us and giving a little of their time ❤

SUPPORT FOR UKRAINIAN DISPLACED PERSONS AND REFUGEES IN POLAND

The situation in Ukraine is getting worse day by the day. Countless people were internally displaced. One million people have fled their homes, uprooted from their land. Among these, hundreds of thousands took the road to the Polish border, carrying only a suitcase or bag. It is very likely that more and more people will be forced to flee the terrible reality of the violence caused by war, unless the conflict ceases instantaneously.

Faced with the massive evacuation of Ukrainian refugees to Poland, the Polish government, various charities, individuals, each in its own way is trying to rescue emigrants

Aid to refugees was initially organised in a very spontaneous way. In thousands of places set up specifically for this purpose, people brought basic necessities of life. At present, the biggest problem is to provide them with adequate accommodation.

In this dramatic situation, Salute e Sviluppo, in collaboration with other Camillian and non-camillian organizations, is supporting the emergency action promoted by the Polish Camillian Province in response to the Ukrainian crisis.

The Province, which works in coordination with Caritas, is organizing two important interventions to welcome part of the flow of fleeing Ukrainian people arriving in the cities of Poland:

– provide psychosocial support for refugee children who are welcomed by families around the Camillian parish of Tarnowskie Góry.

– provide temporary accommodation for 55 families who have fled, with the reopening of the seminary in Burakow (Lomianki), and help families who choose to start a new life in Poland to find a new flat and a new job in order to achieve an independent life.

To do this we also need you. Click here, choose the method of donation and enter in the reason HELP UKRAINE

Drought emergency in Kenya – Wajir County

The impact of the recurring drought in Wajir County, where SeS works with local communities, has affected the most vulnerable population causing food insecurity and malnutrition. In recent years, Wajir County has experienced low rainfall with an increase of the dry season. The consequences have had a serious impact on people’s livelihoods: agriculture and animal husbandry, the two main sources of income for rural communities.

Between 18 and 23 October, our partner – the Camillian Task Force in Kenya (Cadis International) – conducted an assessment to evaluate the impact of the current drought on the community. Gaps were identified in four different areas: food, livelihoods, water and sanitation, and health.

Help us to support interventions in Wajir County! This initiative includes:

– Food security programme: supporting food security in the region through agricultural techniques
– Water and sanitation: provision of clean water for domestic use and irrigation and construction of eco-toilets
– Health programme: Mobile clinics

Support for the population of Kerala affected by the cyclone

Due to the passage of a mini cyclone over the central-eastern coast of the Arabian Sea, torrential rains and floods hit several districts (Kottayam, Idukki, Thrissur and Ernakulam) of Indian Kerala, destroying houses and causing several victims.

Our local partners, the Camillians of Sneha Charitable Trust, in collaboration with the Camillian Task Force (Cadis International) have organized a relief mission (Flood Relief Mission) in favor of the affected population, distributing basic necessities and helping in the reconstruction of homes destroyed.

Support our mission and donate to help families in need affected by the emergency!
