Tuvu

“Tuvu” (meaning “neaby” in Latvian) is a Christian charity organization which helps families in crisis, children and lonely people in Latvia. “Tuvu” owns charity shops in Jelgava and Tukums, where you can buy things donated by German co-operation partners, as well as by private individuals: clothing, footwear, dishes, furniture and other things. “Tuvu” charity shops serve not only as a way for the association to reach its social goals, but also as a place where people can meet, talk and get help. Income and profit of charity shops are invested in charity projects organized by the association, including support for people in need, camps for adolescents and support at the beginning of the school year, educational activities as well as creative and practical skill workshops.
