Get in touchThank you from everyone at Sunvil.
On 23 September we launched an appeal for donations of refugee aid which we would transport to Greece on our last flight of the season. Our aim was to collect three tonnes of essential items - tents, sleeping bags, clothing - to support the work of the Red Cross and local refugee support groups on the island of Samos. The appeal was led by our local representative Nina who has been working with the charities and has been very much involved in the efficient and unobtrusive handling of the refugee flow.
We were overwhelmed by the donations that we received and on the 1st October we flew 3.5 tonnes of aid (259 boxes and bags) to Samos. A further 1.5 tonnes of our aid was flown to the island a few days later. The aid has now been distributed to the Red Cross and local support groups and is making a difference to refugees arriving on the island with nothing.
Our Justgiving page which is raising funds to support the work of the Red Cross with refugees in Greece has raised over £3300.
So, 'thank you' from all of us at Sunvil in the UK and from our team overseas.
The appeal is now closed.
