The Rotary Club Osnabrück donates 3,000 euros to the children's rights organization Terre des Hommes

Osnabrück, November 20, 2024-Doing good for refugee children and young people in the Osnabrück region: On Tuesday, Stefan Burghardt, President of the Rotary Club Osnabrück, handed over a check for 3,000 euros to Terre from Hommes board member Joshua Hofert. The donation is used for the Osnabrück project "Leisure for Young Refugees".

The project is an initiative of the Osnabrück association Exil EV and is aimed at refugee children and young people from the initial reception facility Bramsche-Hesepe. In the project, for example, you can try it out creatively, discover the surrounding area with excursions, work out in indoor play halls and use other sporting offers. The aim is to offer a wide range of leisure activities and create rooms in which you can get your head free - far from everyday life in the initial reception facility - and simply be child.

"We are pleased to know Terre des Hommes-as a worldwide active organization that is also active here here-in our city," says Rotary President Stefan Burghardt. »We want to promote the acceptance of the population for refugees in the city and in the region. To meet people at eye level without reservations, regardless of their residence status or their country of origin, is an essential contribution to integration. «

Joshua Hofert thanks the valuable commitment: "The Rotary Club Osnabrück also makes it possible for us to convey a positive feeling of belonging to the children in the sense of an open welcome culture and help them develop their individual potential."
