Around 700 tents and other camping equipment left behind by visitors at the Sziget Festival and donated to charity will be given to people in need, the Hungarian Charity Service of the Order of Malta told MTI on Friday.
According to the statement, 20 institutions and volunteer groups of the Hungarian Charity Service of the Order of Malta and volunteers from 20 other NGOs filled 38 vehicles, cars, vans and trucks with used tents, polyfoams, inflatable mattresses, sleeping bags, camping chairs and other camping equipment after the Sziget Festival closed.
As they write, Sziget organizers encouraged festival-goers to leave their camping equipment in good condition or take it to the Hungarian Charity Service of the Order of Malta tents if they do not want it.
The Hungarian Charity Service of the Order of Malta has been a partner of the international festival since 2018 with the aim of ensuring that camping equipment left on site does not end up as waste. After cleaning and maintenance, the tents, mattresses, blankets and chairs will be used, among other things, to provide camping for children in need and to care for homeless people, the statement stresses.
