Grey skies outside, rain, ☔ snow 🌨️, and short days. That's how most of us associate December. 😑 It was in this month that we celebrated the Miracle Weekend, the handover of gifts from Szlachetna Paczka (Noble Box). Joy, tears, and emotions. 😿 Such feelings can be evoked in those who receive gifts by donating your accumulated GB.
Vikings Support! 💝
In this edition, we decided to support Mr. Jan, Patrycja, and Łukasz. The family is struggling with financial difficulties, but at the same time, they value honesty and hard work. Our community can always be counted on! We've seen this many times, but this final rescue mission was a true masterpiece! 🥳
Viking Noble Box 2022 in numbers:
- In 12 hours, we collected as much as 28,230 GB, 🏃
- As part of the campaign, as many as 430 Vikings shared their GB, 🤝
- In total, you donated 444 GB packages. 💪

If it's Christmas, then... GIFTS! 🎁
For the shopping, we took with us not only the collected funds but also wide smiles! 😁 This special family received gifts worth almost 9,500 PLN. With the help of Vikings, we fulfilled the dreams of Jan, Patrycja, and Łukasz. What did we buy? A laptop, bedding, towels, groceries, treats, household chemicals, warm clothes, and winter footwear. 🥰 We didn't forget about fulfilling the special wishes of the family members. Patrycja dreamed of a doll, and Łukasz received foldable tram and bus models. Jan received table tennis paddles. 🎾

A big (literally! 😆) surprise for Mr. Jan was an electric scooter, which he didn't expect at all. We knew that the head of the family had knee problems, and his daily commute to work was worsening his health. We packed the gifts in 28 large boxes. The Viking elves didn't have reindeer assistance, but we managed to fill the trunks of two cars to the brim. 🚗🚙
Touching Visit
We met with Piotr, the guardian of the family we chose. Together, we drove to the indicated address and started carrying in the gifts. 🤩 ViQueen Basia was moved by the family's reaction:
“As we were bringing in the packages, we could see that both the children and Jan were impressed and couldn't believe what was happening. With each subsequent box, their smiles grew wider, and the children said there was so much that they wouldn't be able to leave the room. (…) As always, the visit to the recipient family was an incredible experience.”
Generous Vikings! On behalf of ourselves and the recipient family, we thank you once again for your support and donated GB. We believe that goodness returns, and the smiles of those who received gifts were a ray of sunshine for us, breaking through the December clouds. 🥰
