Solidarity at Christmas – Charity drives, fundraisers, food banks and toy appeals

from Filling the Sink · host catalannews

Christmas is a time of celebration, of family and friends, of giving and receiving gifts, but it can also be a very lonely and very expensive time of year. Gerard Escaich Folch and Cillian Shields join Lorcan Doherty to look at some of the ways people in Catalonia are giving back this Christmas, including a Red Cross campaign that aims to make sure that no child goes without presents. Ferran Busquets, director of the Arrels Foundation, talks about the importance of the Christmas meals his organization provides for homeless people. This week's Catalan phrase is 'Com més serem, més riurem', which means 'The more of us there are, the more we laugh', or simply, 'The more the merrier'!
