Distribution of learning materials
Thanks to donation from Stiftelsen “Et Rikere Liv”, machines and materials for production have been purchased from the women’s company “Five Dots”.
PfC is one of the organizations on the donor platform Shareitfair. In addition to the donation from Et Rikere Liv, gifts sent via the Shareitfair-app will be used to purchase more material to the day cares. By now, we have been able to supply one day care with learning material customized for the age group 0-4 years. We will continue buying – and supplying more day cares – as we receive gifts from Shareitfair.
Due to high demand, the women in Five Dots are guaranteed continued employment. The company have introduced flexible shifts, so that they also can take care of the family. As employees of Five Dots, the women earn significantly more than they did previously. All 14 employees previously made a living as waste pickers.
