Konserthuskaien 9-19 Wednesday
The truck will be parked at Konserthuskaien between the old overseas terminal and Stavanger konserthus at 09.00-19.00 Wednesday March 2nd. The Polish woman, Anna Czekalska, who is one of the initiators of the campaign, asks first of all for products for women and children. Don't ship clothes, the warehouse has enough clothes.
We need drugs and hygiene items
- We need medications such as Paracet and Ibux, diapers, hygiene items such as bandages and tampons, wet wipes, baby food, dry food, canned food and foldable strollers. This is crucial for refugees at the border. They have come a long way and are standing in long lines, they lack food and water - says Anna.
The transport goes to Warsaw on Thursday
The goods collected in Stavanger will be transported to the warehouse in Hoveveien in Sandnes, from where on Thursday 3 March will stay sent to Warsaw.
- It is urgent to start sending the aid. Please help - says Anna.
