Here at IB Polska, we are taking part in a heart-warming project where people with disabilities from Kraków write letters with their Christmas wishes, and different companies from across the city help make those wishes come true.

Our Christmas preparations are in full swing thanks to another edition of our annual gift campaign, which we are once again organizing in collaboration with Shell Polska. As always, our employees rose to the challenge and prepared gift packages for people with disabilities whom we support daily in Małopolska and Silesia. These packages will soon be delivered to our clients during our assistants’ holiday visits.

This week, our office has been especially busy collecting gifts donated by participating companies, sorting them, and handing them over to our assistants, who will ensure they reach the people taking part in the program in time for Christmas. It is one of those initiatives that truly makes a difference, a small gesture can bring a huge smile and brighten someone’s holidays.

Paula, Cristina, and Maria have been working like true Christmas Elfs, preparing everything so that every senior in the city can receive a special gift.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Ania Basiak and Monika Masełek, who were on-site and led the entire initiative, having previously organized the support network, coordinated wish lists, and prepared the parcels. Special thanks also go to Piotr Mędrek for coordinating the campaign as a whole.

We sincerely thank Shell Polska for another year of cooperation and for helping us make December a little warmer for those less fortunate.
It’s been a beautiful experience that has filled our office with holiday spirit, teamwork, and the joy of giving. We’re proud to be part of a project that brings a little magic and warmth to those who need it most during this festive season.

Merry Christmas!
