Since the beginning of March, the initiative has had a partnership with Terraço Shopping and Venâncio Shopping, and now it also has a partnership with Armarinho Milano to collect crochet and knitting lines. The materials received will be used to make coats that will be distributed to socially vulnerable women served by the department.
“The initiative provides an opportunity to value the most vulnerable so that they face the cold with dignity and comfort. It means welcoming and warming those who need it most”, says the Secretary of Justice and Citizenship, Marcela Passamani. In this new stage, the campaign continues with the objective of mitigating the impact of low temperatures and will also collect warm clothes and blankets in partnership with Supermercados Big Box, Ultrabox and Atacadão Dia a Dia.
