We are convinced that everyone has an issue that moves them - and this passion is the best driver for positive change.

We have personal contact with the associations listed and know the initiators. As different as the areas of interest are, the challenges are similar: too little time and too little money, but a huge heart and self-sacrificing dedication beyond one's own limits to help others in need.

You are welcome to do the same and support the projects: whether with financial donations or as a volunteer. You will find detailed information on how you can support us on the respective websites.

Let's do it together - true to the motto: Giving makes you happy.
