Creative for the Press Release.

Over time and with dedication towards supporting the work of the Cyprus Red Cross Society (CRCS), Lidl Cyprus stands by CRCS’ efforts to manage the consequences of the Covid-19 virus within our society.

Specifically, Lidl Cyprus supports the "Exceptional Support Services for Elderly and Vulnerable Groups" of the CRCS for the provision of food, medicine and basic necessities to vulnerable groups of the population, as well as the dissemination of informational material, in four languages, across Cyprus.

Within the framework of CRCS’ multidimensional work, alimentary needs of refugees hosted at the Emergency Reception Centre in Kokkinotrimithia are being covered, as well as the needs of pregnant women and new-borns at the Kofinou Reception Centre for Refugees and Asylum Seekers.

At the same time, CRCS will proceed, as every year, in providing Love Packages with foodstuffs and essentials, and/or coupons to fellow citizens who are in dire need during Easter.   In addition, a specific team of CRCS trained volunteers has been assigned to a particular Government programme coordinated by the Volunteerism Commissioner and Non-Governmental Organisations.

The CRSC is faithfully following and implementing all measures and instructions announced by the Government regarding the management of the Covid-19 virus and is taking necessary protection and safety measures in all its actions, both with regards to its personnel and volunteers as well as with regards to the people they are serving.

Through its belief in the power of the collective support, Lidl Cyprus is also giving its consumers the opportunity to contribute to the valuable efforts of the Cyprus Red Cross through donating a monetary amount from every purchase of Favorina products. Specifically, Lidl Cyprus will offer €0.30 from the sales of each Favorina product and will donate it in support of the CRSC’s Crisis Management Programme.Lidl Cyprus, with a high sense of responsibility and solidarity, is committed to continue its efforts in taking care of those who need it and in the light of a better tomorrow.
