With cold weather, a problem with clothes for homeless people and those that struggle financially is becoming bigger and bigger. The possibility of choosing what to wear is a privilege that many have never experienced. That is something that this project aims to fix. It will not only provide a coat for a person, but also allow the person to choose what to wear and return to her a sense of dignity by providing a "shopping experience".
This project is based on creating something similar to a street store. In the city of Maldonado, Uruguay a small place for free shopping is set. It has a variety of clothes that are bought in second-hand stores, are clean and safe to wear. It also has bags and pins with Fundition logo on them and is promoting the Steem Blockhain by including more and more people in social actions. Here is the list of the initial expenses:
People are usually surprised when they find out that they can get the clothes for free but very delighted to receive the entire shopping experience with people helping them to find the right size and clothes that fit them perfectly just as that which they actually like. Donations to this project are accepted in material too so if you are around and have some spare clothes or shoes, drop them by, otherwise, your kind donations on fundition.io will be very much appreciated.

Divers, pants, shirts, T-shirts, jackets, wool hats, belts, scarves and shoes for children, women, and men are available. In the process of requesting the necessary authorizations to carry out the event in the municipal square of Maldonado, the project owner met the Councillor Maria Acland who helped her to donate clothes directly in a community dining room of Villa Delia and many more will be visited soon.
This project already has more than 1160 backers and there is still time for you to become one of them. It has been recognized by many as a project that deserves all the help it can get and does wonders for people who are in need of clothes. Regular news about the project are made with more than 50 posts so far and you can choose between 3 different backer rewards depending on your amount of donation. You can get recognition in audiovisual content that will be made, a personalized pin with your name or a reusable bag with Fundition logo and your name on it.

We often take things for granted. Being able to choose your clothes is one of those things. When we think about helping people with our donations, some of us do not realize how difficult it is to accept help and what a feeling of shame that brings. It does not matter what kind of difficult situation some are in, it is always hard to receive gifts when you know they are out of pity. This project has a lovely way of changing that. It gifts not only clothes but dignity too. People are able to combine colors, designs, and sizes. They are able to get a feeling of deciding what they will wear and in that way building their self-confidence. We all have a need, an unwritten duty somewhere deep inside us, to help when help is needed. This is a great way to fulfill that need.

-Greetings Miemie from the Fundition teamHello @blockbrothers ! Yes this project is truly a great one! It was such a pleasure to see the step by step progress of this project!
Cool for her, coo for Fundition!So cool all the support you gave @LotusLeaf... also was a pleasure to give her a hand! Really beautiful project and sad to lose the last part when I was in Krakow...
Yo @leotrap ! I know that you are the one behind Lotusleaf and push her to launch the project on Fundition. You guys rock!
Ahhh now she is doing all the path alone ;) - She's a real Steemian now! hahaha.
Sad I lost the last part of the project but she wanted to give me a surprise!
So proud of here!
Thanks to all the support you gave here @Fundition team!
I am very grateful to know this beautiful tool to work in social responsibility.
As they describe well, the objective is not only to provide coats but to find a way to work on their self-esteem that is much more important than a garment. With this project I want to motivate many more people to carry out social actions.
Thank you very much @Fundition for believing in me and supporting the project. Thanks @leotrap for motivating me to do it and support me in the process.
The project is simply amazing, I have this small hope that it will spread far and wide and people in other countries could start the same initiative, it would be so amazing! The vision, the philosophy, the mindset behind the Get Warm project is inspirational!
