In Achim almost everyone knows him: the "Terre des Hommes market" in Brückenstr. 5. On three days a week, Achimer citizens can browse there and acquire new favorite pieces. The offer ranges from used clothing to small household items. Donations of clothing are always very welcome.
Around 30 committed women and men between the ages of 40 and 80 are the many small bikes that keep this market in motion and thus generate an impressive sum year after year. Money that children benefit from the projects supported by Terre des Hommes. But that's not all: the annual Christmas bazaar, exhibitions, actions for the Achim weeks against exclusion as well as benefit concerts and much more complement the volunteer activities of the group and are therefore an extremely valuable part of the Hommes' volunteer office in Germany.
Speaking of "benefit concerts": On the occasion of this year's 45th anniversary of the Terre des Hommes Group Achim, a special benefit concert took place on Easter Saturday in Achimer Kasch, the place where the group meets every month. In the large hall filled to the last seat, the band »Souly«, with its wide-ranging repertoire of rousing groove numbers and soulful ballads.
A very big thank you for so much energy and this decades commitment to the children in our project regions worldwide!
