Brussels bandages in the streets: #CeciNestPasUnPansement
On April 25, 2016, Brussels is being invaded by giant bandages. In the four corners of the capital, in its most mythical places flower dressings: Atomium, Palace royal, Mont des Arts, Basilica and many others.
And yet ... #ThisIsNotA Band-Aid.
What do these giant bandages mean in Brussels?
behind these stickers in the shape of "giant bandages", hides a whole symbolic. What's important is what's behind the bandages that are part of everyday life… And not just those giant stickers that adorn the city today. You have understood it, it is a symbolism.
12.000 volunteers who every day hide behind these bandages. Days and Night, the latter carry out relief operations. In 2015, these Red Cross volunteers helped more than 50.000 people in distress.
Red Cross volunteers not only fight against poverty. In all serious situations such as exhibitions of gas, floods, accidents these volunteers are ready to help. Recently, during tragic attacks in Brussels, the Red Cross has demonstrated its professionalism and maintains that these volunteers were ready to contribute.
Make a donation for the Red Cross in Brussels
#ThisIsNotA Band-Aid ... "Without donation, no action" It is the generosity of citizens that makes possible the actions of the red cross in Brussels and elsewhere. This is why between the April 28 and May 12, Red Cross volunteers will offer to buy bandages.
1 pouch of bandages = 5€ = 1 hot meal
