In December, our team visited maternity hospitals in Daugavpils and Jēkabpils, donating a large number of useful items for newborns. Sometimes expectant or new mothers turn to the Salvation Army for help with the things they need to take their newborn baby home from the maternity hospital. Social workers have also approached us with such requests. We are happy to have the opportunity to help mothers in this situation too.
“Let’s make Daugavpils warmer” is a special project that aims to involve the people of Daugavpils in making socks, hats, gloves and scarves for the needy. Many of the knitted items are distributed to the Salvation Army during the winter, while these people take the opportunity to eat a free lunch. Many mothers are involved in this project. 2021. In November and December 2021, the Salvation Army distributed more than 300 pairs of knitted socks, scarves and hats. Helping people is an integral part of our lives, bringing joy and satisfaction! Together, let’s do more good work and help people in the new year 2022. .
