This motto already drove us during the successful Christmas campaign in 2023.
Due to the great success, we would like to carry out a similar campaign this year. Your donations will mean that the children will be able to forget about the war for a few moments this year too.
The children in Ukraine are suffering particularly badly from the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. On the 2nd Advent 2023, we therefore gave small Christmas packages to numerous children in Dmytrika, near Kyiv. Together with many hard-working helpers, we packed over 400 packages.
The pictures document our 2023 packaging campaign and show how much joy and hope we were able to spread together.
Handing over and unpacking the packages
Christmas 2024: Support for around 350 children
This year we want to make around 350 children up to 6 years old happy. These children were selected in close cooperation with the community. The packages are gender-neutral and filled with things that children enjoy. In addition to classic Christmas sweets, the packages contain:
- Coloring pads
- Colored pencils
- Eraser figures
- Stamps with animal motifs
- and much more
The packaging campaign will take place on **November 2, 2024** at:
St. Antonius Riflemen’s Brotherhood
Am Eichelkämpchen 3
53757 Sankt Augustin-Niederpleis
Many thanks to the shooters who are supporting us again with their location.
