Car boot sale of the Friends of Rivne in Monsempron-Libos

The Charity Car Boot Sale of the Friends of Rivne in Monsempron-Libos

Every September, the association Les Amis de la Région de Rivne organizes a car boot sale in the heart of Monsempron-Libos (47500). This solidarity event is much more than a simple flea market: the funds raised are entirely donated to support Ukrainian children, whether they are refugees from the war in Ukraine or still marked by the health consequences of the Chernobyl disaster.

A gesture of generosity within everyone's reach

Browsing, selling, or simply coming to support the event means participating in a chain of concrete solidarity. The association collects donations in kind and cash during the car boot sale and sends them to partner families and associations in Ukraine. In Lot-et-Garonne, the inhabitants of Monsempron-Libos and neighboring communes faithfully respond to this call for generosity, making this car boot sale a committed event that warms hearts every autumn.

The Friends of the Rivne Region

The association Les Amis de la Région de Rivne, based in Monsempron-Libos, maintains ties of friendship and solidarity with the Ukrainian region of Rivne (or Rivno), a city in western Ukraine marked by its proximity to the Chernobyl contaminated zone. Founded by residents of Lot-et-Garonne sensitive to the Ukrainian cause, it organizes collections, humanitarian aid shipments, and awareness campaigns throughout the year. The annual car boot sale is its main fundraising operation.
