November 30, 2020 - Brac olive oil producers are coming together during the holiday season to show their appreciation for Croatian hospital workers.
Morski.hr reports that Brac olive oil producers have decided to lighten the mood in these difficult times with one admirable humanitarian gesture. Thus, they have decided to offer the most precious thing they have, the fruit of their labor - olive oil - to the diligent employees of Croatian hospitals.
"In order to make the holiday season more cheerful, a humanitarian action was launched where Brac citizens can donate their olive oil to the Clinical Hospital Centers in Croatia, or to the hardworking people who work in them, especially in these challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic. All towns on the island of Brac are included in the action, and the coordination is taken over by the Tourist Boards," announced the Municipality of Bol Tourist Board.
"If you want to participate in this humanitarian action 'Brac oil for hardworking people' (or in the Brac dialect, 'Bročko uje za vridne jude'), please bring the amount of olive oil you would like to donate (minimum 1 liter) to the Tourist Board of Bol office, from Monday, November 30, 2020, to Friday, December 4, 2020, from 8:30 am to 2:00 pm.
It would be best if the oil is packaged in glass, but it is not necessary. Place your labels on the packaging, and if you don't have any, the children from the "Little Prince" Kindergarten will draw them for you for this occasion.
After the collection is completed, olive oil will be distributed to the Clinical Hospital Centers in Croatia, and we will of course inform you about the exact destinations and quantities.
Let our oil bring joy and make the holidays more beautiful for all who care about our health and to all who, unfortunately, will spend these holidays separated from their loved ones," said the Bol Tourist Board.
"A heartfelt thank you to everyone who will respond to this truly commendable action!"
