“… But we are interested in the human factor. This means that, what we are trying to do with the companies is not that you just make a donation to an NGO and that’s it; we want people to realize how they help and what their impact is when they help, and for this reason we invite them to our (social) actions. What we have noticed is that they (the employees) can collect things in a room and a courier company can come to pick these things up and take them to a (specific) place and the employee finally, will just see the meeting room and the report, without experiencing the real need. I think this does not mirror the feelings that a volunteer can have. Nor the benefits.”
