Christmas campaign

Die Arche is an aid organization founded in Berlin in 1995 that is committed to combating child poverty in Germany. Die Arche runs leisure facilities and school support for socially disadvantaged children and young people at 28 locations.

The children are offered leisure activities that would otherwise have little social and cultural participation. Over 5,000 children are reached with these offers.

The Arche also offers free meals, outreach work with young people, active work with parents and a clothing store.

In December, a member of the Management Board presented the Arche 2022 Christmas campaigns (Christmas party and food parcels) to our cooperation partner, the Arche, on the basis of our "Play, fun and exercise" campaign.

The 2022 Christmas party included a Christmas dinner and a festive program. Around 400 children and their families took part. The children received a personalized Christmas present from Santa Claus at the end.

In addition to this Christmas party, the Arche in Berlin also provided 1000 families in need with a Christmas food parcel worth €80 on 24.12.2022. Our association donated €10,000 to the Arche for this campaign. As a result, our donation reached 125 families with 2 to 3 children, i.e. around 500 to 600 people.

With another Christmas campaign in 2023, our association supported the needy children from the Arche with 5,000 euros and thus helped another 250 to 310 people (needy families with children).
