Good Deeds Day is a global day that unites people from 100 countries to do good deeds for the benefit of others and the planet.
Since 2007, millions of people from thousands of organizations and businesses around the world volunteer and do good for the community.
Embassy of Israel in Slovakia was no exception and participated in 2019 Good Deeds Day as well.
Diplomats, Embassy staff and friends visited children in one of Bratislava family centres.
In order to higher the quality of the accommodation we repaired the walls and painted three rooms and took care of small repairments in the building.
We did most of the work while kids were at school and the happiness on childrens’ faces when they got back to freshly painted rooms could not make us happierJ
We gave everybody a Good Deeds Day Tshirt, played football with them and thanks to our kind sponsors we brought pizzas and cakes for all kids and staff of the orphanage. Each kid received a package full of sweets and as a biggest surprise we invited a magician that performed spectacular tricks and amazed everyone, even adults!
Many hanks to everyone who contributed to this year's Good Deeds Day project
