Restos du Coeur for Belgium
Food aid "Restos du Coeur“: This service is open from January to December. Approximately 535,000 meals are served each year. A hot meal must meet at least two criteria:  diversity (e.g. meat, vegetables, potatoes) and quantity to cover the needs of the main daily meal. In 2011, we experienced an increase of 20% for served meals. Parcel : a parcel consists of various daily food rations.  Each ration must correspond to the equivalent of one meal per person per day. School meals:  we offer meals for children of school going age and dependant people. Distribution of parcels at home for people with restricted mobility.

You can visit the websites of the organisations directly and make your donation there. Our main aim is to inform you and this is very close to our heart. As we are aware of the time-consuming aspect of research and we want to make it easier for you to get informed, we often collect information for days or even weeks.

The organisations we donate to are not responsible for the content of this t-shirt/ design. The content does not necessarily reflect their opinion.

About the theme:

We want these designs to take on the role of a snapshot in time representing the 21st century and showing what is going on.

How did we come up with the idea to design flags?
One morning, we realised that we can organise our own day relatively well - quite in contrast to the soldiers. While we master our daily life, the soldiers of many nations often don't know whether or not they will return to their base safely. We especially want to honour the soldiers for their service, as they are ready to give their life and take a loss for the safety of our country and their country of deployment.

 - That's what we want to express with this T-shirt.

 - This message is true for all flags and all nations which stand up for peace.
