“1 FOOD ITEM INSTEAD OF 1 TICKET” SOLIDARITY IN VOLLEYBALL
The initiative 1 Food Item instead of 1 Ticket was a success and proved that the volleyball family is a special one and supportive with the social causes. With this campaign we achieved to create involvement and positive energy around the National Team, and we are certain that the institution which received the donations was also pleased with the outcome, as told us by its General Secretary earlier.
Within this unprecedented initiative involving National Teams and international official competitions, the public was invited to donate one food item instead of buying a ticket.
In addition to the players, technical team and respective families’ donations, the Portuguese Volleyball Federation employees wanted to contribute also, hence this was a proud initiative carried out by the institution which they represent daily.
Other campaigns like this one are to be expected soon as we want that the Volleyball Solidarity movement continue to help those in need.
The Portuguese Volleyball Federation wishes to thank all people involved in this cause, from the organization of the event, to the fans that were in Vila do Conde, and to those who publicized the campaign through social networking. We thank you all.
