The fifth distribution of cheque vouchers to fifty beneficiaries of the programme “Care for the Third Age IV” took place.
Specifically, on Monday, 16 September, the beneficiaries came to the offices of the institution. The distribution was accompanied by a speech by the Deputy Mayor of Cleaning and Recycling of the Municipality of Drama, Mr. Efraimidis Ioannis and the Deputy Supervisor of Cleaning, Ms. Gaitanidou Sophia, titled “The importance of recycling”. During the speech they urged the audience to recycle.
In particular, they explained how to separate materials in the recycling bins and stressed that recycling significantly reduces the cost of municipal fees.
