Strong together: Aroundtown Foundation supports outpatient hospice service for children and young people in Düsseldorf

The Aroundtown Foundation provides financial support to the Outpatient Children's and Youth Hospice Service in Düsseldorf. The donation goes towards various projects and also enables the purchase of a service bicycle and seat cushions for children.

The organization of the Outpatient Children's and Youth Hospice Service in Düsseldorf has been in existence since 2007 and makes an important contribution to supporting families with children and young people with life-limiting or life-threatening illnesses. Given that around 75% of running costs have to be covered by donations, financial help from organizations such as the Aroundtown Foundation is crucial. The service currently accompanies and supports more than 30 families with the help of around 60 volunteers and three full-time coordinators.

This support from the Aroundtown Foundation once again reflects the values and goals that the Foundation stands for, in this case a project in the children and youth sector.
