These donations are part of an agreement between Paris 2024 and Secours populaire before the Olympic deadline. Because all this furniture will have only been used very few times, for 15 days or a month at most, and is therefore almost new. Among the partnerships, there is the recovery of second-hand products, in particular everything that was used in the villages of the Olympic and Paralympic committees, explained the manager to France Blue. This concerns everything that can be recovered: mattresses, furniture, small household appliances like microwaves. he clarified.
