Diverse food aid activities
The Finnish Red Cross organises food aid activities in a variety of forms in about 180 locations. The food aid activities by the Red Cross involve more than just providing food aid. Food aid events are organised in combination with related activities such as meeting places and health advice. There are many things you can do as a food aid volunteer: Mitä voin tehdä monimuotoisen ruoka-avun vapaaehtoisena.pdf (What can I do as a volunteer in diverse food aid activities?
