Change language:

Magyaridok.hu reports that Hungarians are especially ready to donate to those in need before holidays and in case of natural disasters. Hungarian charitable organisations reveal that it is either individuals or more significant enterprises that make donations and in fact, media also plays a huge role in popularising their different campaigns.

The number of donations increases before Christmas

Without a doubt, it is during the Advent season that people donate the most. At this time, the message of helping those in need reaches more people, and the donations made during the Advent season are used throughout the year, reports the Hungarian Interchurch Aid. Besides fundraising, the association also organises further emblematic campaigns like the Unclouded Childhood camping programme or the Starting School Together campaign that assists families in need.

More and more Hungarians donate a certain sum of money every month to charities. In addition, in case a natural disaster strikes the country, the organisations are also able to call the attention of hundreds of Hungarians who are ready to stand up for good causes.

Therefore, their support is more personalised and more efficient in this way. Besides money donation, they are pleased to receive other objects offered by the individuals as well.

Furthermore, the organisation attributes a great role to the media which advertises their campaigns and encourages people for further donations.
