ASSIST Software donates 14 bicycles
ASSIST Software has partnered, yet again, with the well-known Save The Children Suceava NGO for another charitable event. At the end of the school year, in June, we purchased and gathered bicycles for the “Dăruiește bicicleta care ți-a rămas mică” (trans. ”Give away your small bicycle”) campaign.
The campaign’s main objective was to bring happiness and a small aid to children from low-income families living in the Suceava area by simple means, accessible to everybody who would have wished to help.
As such, 14 bicycles have been offered to just as many children that were eager to receive joy at the end of a tumultuous school year that made them face a lot of challenges and briefly separated them from their peers.
The first wave of donations started on the 28th of June and took place in the village of Stroiești, in the county of Suceava. ASSIST representatives were present to ensure the safe delivery of the bicycles and meet the children, hear their stories and see them while they were offered the gifts.
However, ASSIST also provided additional presents, making sure that the little ones also receive backpacks filled with school supplies, meant to aid them in the following school year, and colorfully illustrated books that would surely be a fun, summer reading experience.
ASSIST Software will always identify with values promoting a healthy, active lifestyle and we will always support those less fortunate in any way we can. We trust that the good deeds and the kind gestures we make today will ripple and multiply in the future, proving that all efforts to help the community do echo and leave marks especially in the hearts and minds of youth.
We thank our partners and the colleagues that decided to get involved in the charitable event and those that donated old bicycles or contributed financially to the purchase of new ones.
Other projects aimed at helping those in need will follow.
