Food for our Christmas dinner

Ladies and Gentlemen,

christmas time is a special time. Festivities are celebrated, usually with family and friends. But quite a few people also feel very lonely at this time of year. That's why this year we would like to offer a Christmas dinner for people in our neighborhood at our "Gemeinsam im Kiez leben" community meeting point. We need your support to make the Christmas dinner possible.

Briefly about us and our work: The "Gemeinsam im Kiez leben" community meeting place is an inclusive neighborhood meeting place in Alt-Hohenschönhausen Süd. We organize free or very affordable offers and events for people from the neighbourhood. Here is the link to our website if you would like to take a closer look at our work: https://www.gemeinsam-im-kiez.de/ 

We are now asking for donations in kind in the form of food for our Christmas dinner. Every donation helps us to create a warm and festive atmosphere where everyone feels welcome.

If you have any questions or would like to coordinate donations in kind, please do not hesitate to contact us. You can reach us on 030 344 090 470 or by e-mail at buergertreff@co-mensch.de

We would really appreciate it if you would support us and our neighborhood.
With kind regards,
Lara Schmidgall

Summer clothes and shoes for our donation-based clothing store

We are always happy to receive new donations for our donation-based clothing store.
At the moment we are trying to stow away the winter clothes to make room for summer clothes!

Please make sure that the clothes are washed, clean and in good used condition or even as good as new. Please also sort them and label them according to size. This helps our volunteers enormously when unpacking and sorting. We are also happy to accept older clothing if it is still in good condition.
Unfortunately, we cannot accept clothes with tears and holes as we do not have the capacity or facilities (sewing machine etc.) to repair them.

Socks, underwear and baby clothes are also very welcome, as they go quickly. You are also welcome to donate something that you buy new for us, such as underpants for children or socks.

If you have other items to donate, you are also welcome to write to us. Baby carriages, sleeping bags, baby equipment, toys and many other things are also very much needed.

We are very happy to receive your messages and send our best regards! :)

Bicycle for medical operations at the Dresden night skating event

The paramedics will use them to accompany the skaters at the Dresden Night Skate and can thus be with an injured person more quickly.

Pannier racks are not so important as we have ambulance rucksacks with us.

Indoor soccer shoes in size 43.5 for a formerly homeless man

One project participant likes to go to the hall on Sundays to play soccer with other people from different countries. This is where he connects and interacts with other people. He was homeless for a long time and was able to find a new apartment last year through Housing First Stuttgart. It can be quite lonely here sometimes, so the soccer club is important to him. Unfortunately, he no longer has indoor shoes, so he is currently unable to attend the club. His income (income support) is currently not enough to buy new shoes, so we are looking for a pair of indoor shoes in good condition for him.

Used laptop for writing applications for formerly homeless people

Some of our project participants apply for jobs after moving into their own apartment. Unfortunately, this is not particularly easy with just an older type of smartphone. We are therefore looking for laptops that still work but are no longer needed. These will be donated directly to the people formerly affected by housing and homelessness. If necessary, our Housing First Stuttgart project team will help you set up and use them.
