01 / Context
Context
The initiative began during COVID-19, when people unable to leave home needed help with ordinary essentials.
02 / Problem
Problem
Shopping, meals and practical day-to-day support became coordination problems. The work required organising people around specific needs.
03 / Personal ownership
Personal ownership
Co-founded and helped scale the volunteer initiative. The operation grew to 50 volunteers and supported approximately 500 people.
04 / Execution
Execution
Activities included meals, Christmas parcels, shopping and snow clearing. The record includes cooperation with Gdańsk’s municipal social services, Fundacja Droga and a children’s home.
05 / Public evidence
Public evidence
TVP3 Gdańsk, Dziennik Bałtycki, Super Express and Radio ESKA covered the initiative. The nomination among ten finalists for Dziennik Bałtycki’s Person of the Year 2020 and special recognition in the Olivia Prize are distinct items, not a claim to have won both awards.
