A record XNUMX locations have registered for the Christmas card collection.
Christmas cards are being collected for the elderly in Kankaanpää for the third time. After the campaign period, the collected cards will be delivered to the housing service units and home care clients of the Northern Satakunta Basic Services Joint Municipal Authority in the city to brighten their Christmas anticipation. Last year, over 700 cards were distributed in Kankaanpää.
– This year, a record number of localities are participating in making the elderly happy. It is great that touching with a card is resonating in different parts of Finland.

The partners of the campaign are the Municipal Association, the Association of Citizens' Colleges and the Citizen's Arena.
