Finnish man Heiko Hursti, who runs food help for the poor without government donating anything to it, said it helped a lot when Metallica band gave several thousand euros for the food.
Finns requiring food help has now been 10 times more than 5 years ago.
The Finnish poor is now different from 100 years ago: families with children may get help money from government but all this money goes to pay the bills and debt, medical costs etc and there is nothing left in the monthly gibs for money.
Such families then turn to food help to get the food free.
Some stores accept bills given by food help experts to the people which can be only used to buy food and clothes, immediate cleaning ware, soap, but not electronics, not alcohol, etc.
>EU sends 60 000 kgs of help food to Finland annually, mainly from Sweden, Germany and Croatia.
Hurst says there was some years ago food lines made from 200 - 300 people but nowdays its 2000 - 3000 people almost every day there is a food share going on.
MOST PEOPLE WHO REQUIRE FOOD HELP LIVE IN HELSINKI ZONE.
"Hurstin mukaan Helsingin kaupunki laski muutama vuosi sitten Kallion Helsinginkadulla sijaitsevan toimipisteen vuokraan ja ylläpitoon myöntämänsä vuosiavustuksen 150 000 eurosta 100 000:een euroon.
Aukkoa on jouduttu paikkaamaan rahalla, joka on tarkoitettu ruoan ja tarpeiden hankkimiseen vähäosaisille."

this very much, these people should move, and they dont have to go 1000km away, 100km would be enough for rent prices to drop considerably
David Gomez
Yes. You have to be an entitled idiot to actually need food help helping. Like OP said most of these people live in Helsinki which is obviously the most expensive place to live in Finland. They just refuse to move anywhere else.
Jonathan Parker
Why do they refuse?
Jonathan Kelly
Maybe in the city is where they have all the people they know. And social isolation is terrible, so they may prefer to lack food over never interacting with anyone.
Carson Collins
Because everywhere else is a shithole
Ethan Diaz

>They sound like londoners 2bh NYC poor are the same way but the city give them a ton of free crap like two meals a day M-F for all school age kids. If they are sleeping poor they shouldn't be living here.
