Project Held has had a wonderful journey, in which we have been able to help and encourage many people and make a lasting difference. By handing out hot meals, providing food parcels and simply giving a hug or a smile, we have experienced how small gestures can have a huge impact.
One of the main pillars of this trip was to gather information for a special project that we want to support: the tea housesThese tea houses offer employment to an average of 13 people who, for various reasons, have difficulty accessing the labour market. Think of people with a physical disability, limited education or a residential location far from employment.
The tea houses can be a solution for many families, because they give them the chance to become self-sufficient. Moreover, because participants can pay back their deposit after a few years, it becomes possible to offer the same chance to new people again and again.
All in all, this trip was valuable and special, with an impact that will last a long time.
(To ensure the privacy of those involved, we will only share limited photos and reporting.)
