Hi everybody!<\/p>\n

I\u00a0am proud to be in Amerika. I observed Americans, they welcomed me with warm hearts. I don’t know how\u00a0they doing it, always keep smilling and say to me welcome to Amerika. That’s so nice. In this case I cant feel homesick so much.<\/p>\n

In the first step\u00a0I wrote something about you, Americans. You know I guess, its important to write\u00a0it here.<\/p>\n

Yesterday I just discovered\u00a0Care Closet and\u00a0I decided to share it\u00a0with you.\u00a0Whole\u00a0name is correct\u00a0again: The Evansville Ecumenical Care Closet, now you know, its oriented in Evansville – my town.<\/p>\n

\"careclosetlogo\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What\u00a0does it mean? Its a building,which bought\u00a0church for people, whose have law income.This,,store” is open three times per week.\u00a0At this place can everybody buy some clothes, bags, books, home furnishings, toys for 0,25$ to 3$.\u00a0These things bring there good people, they have no use for these thing anymore. Attention! Its not second hand as you say in Slovakia *.<\/p>\n

Why is not called second hand? – because the second part of this building is used for food for free. People in need can take food for free once\u00a0for 3 months. Volunteers, whose work here are seniors citizens. How I saw, they have always attitude. They\u00a0volunteer at different times.<\/p>\n

Who buy this food for Care Closet? The food is provided by community churches, Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts conduct food drives, also.<\/p>\n

Finacial site of Care Closet is simple, money from sale spend\u00a0staff (responsible person)\u00a0for paying bills.<\/p>\n

In Slovakia* we have separately\u00a0second hands and food stores for people in need.In Bratislava we have\u00a0three food stores for poor people. Its not so common have it\u00a0on countryside.\u00a0In this type of store\u00a0can people pay only with special cards (you need minimal 4 points to buy some food for family). Money for this support go from city cash desk (mayor support ).<\/p>\n

This experience\u00a0was a big\u00a0challenge for me, just work in this place. I could be in\u00a0touch with customers and\u00a0sort some clothes with staff too. That was a great opportunity. Thanks Nancy Krake, she invited me there.<\/p>\n

It was pretty good sample of social works in US.\u00a0The Care Closet\u00a0inspired me. Waw, I feel well, you know I love this type of work.<\/p>\n
