Warm blankets for the residents of a shelter for refugees

Due to the adopted energy saving measures, the residents of our shelter are facing a difficult winter. In order to somehow cushion the colder indoor temperatures, we would like to hand out warm blankets to all who need them--especially women and children. In total, 140 people live in our shelter. Therefore, we are looking for a large number of blankets (fleece, wool, new or in very good condition and washed).

If you have several blankets to give away, that would be great. But every single donated blanket makes a difference, too-- and the winter for our residents a little warmer!

The refugee shelter is located in a quiet backstreet in the heart of Berlin Kreuzberg. The shelter provides a temporary home for up to 147 people (singles & families), most of whom are refugees or asylum seekers who had to leave their native countries for various reasons. We offer social counselling and support regarding administrative and bureaucratic matters, help finding German classes, schools, internships, jobs etc. Joint activities, such as excursions, workshops and parties are organized regularly throughout the year. Our intercultural team consists of 9 team members working in the field of social work and facility management. We speak German, Arabic, Kurdish, Russian, Persian, English, French and Spanish. Reception is open 24/7.
