Fulfilling Christmas wishes

on 21 December 2022

Christmas Eve is already in a few days. For the children who had to leave their homes in Ukraine this year, it will be their first Christmas in Germany. BurdaForward colleagues have fulfilled Christmas wishes for about 200 of these children.

How do you close a year that brought so many challenges and crises? Coming together once again, reviewing the last few months, and doing good where it is really needed. That was the goal of BurdaForward's Christmas parties in Munich, Hamburg, Cologne and Bari, Italy. The centerpiece of each celebration was a very special Christmas tree - decorated with wish lists from children who had fled Ukraine.

The wish tree campaign took place as part of the "Sprungkraft" education initiative, with which BurdaForward is committed to fair educational opportunities and the healthy development of children. Via the Tribute to Bambi Foundation, contact was made with the Cologne-based organization FAIR.STÄRKEN e.V., which sent us Christmas wishes such as crayons, coloring books, card games and calculators. The non-profit organization works with children from socially disadvantaged backgrounds, and aims to bring about a colorful, inclusive society through social learning and training opportunities.

Over a campfire, mulled wine and snacks, the BurdaForward colleagues took care of the approximately 200 wishes and brought them packed to a BurdaForward location in the following days. From there, all gifts were collected and forwarded to FAIR.STÄRKEN e.V.. For the packages from Cologne, a personal handover could even take place. We would like to thank all the colleagues involved from the bottom of our hearts for giving real joy at Christmas and helping the children to gain a foothold in Germany.

BurdaForward Communications

Telling stories with a loving eye for detail - that's something I particularly enjoy. At BurdaForward, I mostly do that around our working world. I spend my free time on horseback, on the SUP or on skis. Anything in nature! Preferably in the beautiful Bavarian Alps and my beloved home, the Black Forest.

For refugee children from Ukraine: BurdaForward cooperates with the German Children's Fund

Together with the German Children's Fund, BurdaForward is working to make it easier for refugee children and young people from Ukraine to arrive in Germany. The cooperation partners have joined forces to offer a point of contact as part of a major editorial initiative - both for those helping and for those seeking help. Serious and effective support options are to be made easily accessible on portals such as FOCUS Online, CHIP.de and BUNTE.de. At the same time, comprehensive information is provided about the projects of the children's aid organization in order to boost donation activities through the high reach of the portals. With the help of these, the German Children's Fund finances, for example, recreational or educational measures, psychological care, translations or school equipment - in short, everything that is needed so that children and young people can arrive in Germany as well as possible and live in a way that is suitable for children.
