The storage room is almost empty—at the same time, many people in Witten are waiting for concrete support in their daily lives. For this reason, Help-Kiosk is once again calling for in-kind donations.
“Our storage is nearly empty and many people are waiting for support,” explains chairwoman Melanie Musterfrau. The organization does not collect exclusively for refugees from Ukraine, but for all refugees living in Witten who need assistance.
