COMMENT:
We are very pleased that so many people of good will helped us in organizing this year’s final. Thanks to volunteers, representatives of institutions, business owners, associations, clubs, we organized a fundraiser, final concert, and all accompanying events. Although the goal of the action is not to achieve new records, it is gratifying that this year we raised 135,000 zł, which is over 30,000 zł more than last year. This shows that even in such difficult times, with rampant inflation, residents can still help. We thank you very much for that.
Rafał Kępski Coordinator of the WOŚP in Myszków.
