Activists launch ‘solidarity fund’ to support Wolt drivers

Local activists have launched an online fundraiser to support Cypriot Wolt drivers who held a one-week strike over what they called precarious working conditions which has already raised almost €10,000.

“After a week of strike, many drivers are now behind on rent, food and basic needs,” the fundraiser’s caption writes.

It adds that aside from basic living commodities, some drivers are also behind on paying for their tuition fees, seeing them risk deportation if said costs are not covered.
