From children for children: On the road with the Christmas parcel convoy!
The Christmas parcel convoy 2024 showed once again this year how much joy small gestures can bring. Over 147,000 lovingly packed presents made their way to Eastern Europe to bring a sparkle to children’s eyes in Bulgaria, Moldova, Romania, Poland and Ukraine. A project that gives hope, shows solidarity and brings community to life. We at 2be_die markenmacher also made a small but significant contribution: as the official drop-off point, we were able to collect and “hoard” around 50 parcels before they found their way to the central warehouse and finally into the hands of the children. Thanks to our dedicated customers, partners and friends, our office became a small center of Christmas joy. This campaign shows how easy it can be to become part of something big – and that is exactly what makes us proud.
An impressive joint effort
The transport was organized with 260 volunteers, 33 trucks, six coaches and ten escort vehicles – an impressive logistical feat. But the focus is on the shining eyes of the children as they unwrap the presents. For many of them, it is the first Christmas present of their lives. Local partners on the ground, such as schools and social institutions, ensured that the presents arrived exactly where they were needed most.

Giving joy together
The Christmas parcel convoy has been connecting people across borders for over 20 years. Especially in difficult times, such as the ongoing war in Ukraine, the campaign shows how important solidarity is. Thanks to local networks such as the Raisin Initiative, the parcels also reach remote and hard-to-reach regions.
Thank you for your support – and see you in 2025!
Our thanks go to everyone who took part – whether by packing a gift or as a collection point like us. Without your solidarity, this campaign would not be possible. And one thing is certain: we will be back again next year to give children an unforgettable Christmas treat.
