    "body": "<p>Nu de winter nadert, doet Operation Chaussettes opnieuw een oproep tot vrijgevigheid: warme kleding, schoenen, dekens, verzorgingsproducten en andere essenti&euml;le goederen inzamelen om daklozen en mensen in armoede te helpen.</p><h4 id=\"armoede-treft-ook-jongeren\" >Armoede treft ook jongeren</h4><p>Dakloosheid beantwoordt vandaag niet meer aan het beeld dat we ervan hebben. In Brussel waren bij de laatste telling van Bruss&rsquo;help (november 2024) bijna 10.000 mensen zonder thuis, van wie ongeveer &eacute;&eacute;n op de drie een vrouw is. In Vlaanderen zijn meer dan 21.000 mensen dakloos of thuisloos, onder wie meer dan 6.600 minderjarigen.</p><p>Studenten die hun studies moeten stopzetten, zwangere vrouwen die buiten slapen, gezinnen die van de ene dag op de andere alles verliezen: armoede kan iedereen treffen, op elke leeftijd.</p><h4 id=\"een-eenvoudig-gebaar-concrete-hulp\" >Een eenvoudig gebaar, concrete hulp</h4><p>Iedereen kan meedoen door spullen te brengen die hij of zij niet meer gebruikt, op voorwaarde dat ze proper en in goede staat zijn:</p><ul class=\"release-content-list release-content-list--bulleted release-content-list--align-inherit\"><li><span>Warme kleding: sokken, sjaals, jassen, broeken, mutsen, handschoenen, truien, ondergoed, comfortabele schoenen</span></li><li><span>Dekens, rugzakken, kleine tentjes</span></li><li><span>Basisproducten</span></li><li><span>Speelgoed</span></li></ul><p>De giften worden in aparte, duidelijk gemarkeerde zakken verpakt: H (mannen), F (vrouwen), E (kinderen), P (basisproducten) en speelgoed. De inzameling verloopt via een <strong>drive-in</strong>: schenkers kunnen hun zakken afgeven met de auto, de fiets, de tram of te voet.</p><h4 id=\"bekende-gezichten-naast-de-verenigingen\" >Bekende gezichten naast de verenigingen</h4><p><strong>Philippe Geluck</strong>, al jarenlang peter van het initiatief, tekende de affiche en steunt deze actie, samen met heel wat bekende gezichten, onder wie:<br>\u200bTania Garbarski, Charlie Dupont, David Jeanmotte, Virginie Hocq, Marie-H&eacute;l&egrave;ne Vanderborght, &Eacute;ric Boschman, Denis Van Wyenbergh, het team van Hangar, Jean-Michel

Vanhandenoven, Amandine Ickx, John Dumon en F&eacute;lix Radu.</p><p><strong>Solidarit&eacute; Grands Froids</strong>, partner van het initiatief, sorteert en verdeelt de giften in samenwerking met de begunstigde verenigingen, onder wie:<br>\u200bBruZelle, Espace Social T&eacute;l&eacute;-Services, Le Clos, La Rive, La Rencontre, Pierre d&rsquo;Angle, Resto du C&oelig;ur de Saint-Gilles,
