Mia-Sophie fights: Aid campaign for sick young people in Betzenstein!
A special focus today is on 16-year-old Mia-Sophie from Betzenstein, who is battling a malignant tumor. In order to fulfill her final wishes, she is collecting donations via the GoFundMe platform. This emotional relief campaign shows how important support is for sick children and mobilizes many people in the region to show their willingness to donate. This is a clear call for the community to stand up.
There will be a lot going on in Bindlach next weekend. The exciting event days begin on Friday with the “Magic of Queen” open air, where Queen fans will get their money’s worth. The 28th edition of the Mainwelle Dumpling Festival follows on Sunday, celebrating the region's culinary heritage and offering many local delicacies. It promises to be a festive weekend for young and old.
Assistance for families
At the same time, the Kurier Foundation supports disadvantaged families with an aid campaign when they start school. The aim is to cover the costs of school supplies, which is a huge relief for many families. Such initiatives are invaluable as they ensure that every child has the necessary materials to start the new school year well.
Open Monument Day also takes place on Sunday, when over 5,000 monuments across Germany open their doors to the public. Those interested in the Bayreuth district also have the opportunity to take part in special tours and events. There is even a practical program for your cell phone for this special occasion. This allows you to experience the region's historical treasures on guided tours and themed bike tours. The interactive map guides visitors from monument to monument and offers further exciting information to make the day perfect. Details can be found here.
Commitment to children and young people
Every year, the German Children's Fund is involved in numerous projects aimed at children and young people in Germany. A particular focus is on play and exercise opportunities, healthy nutrition and fair educational opportunities. Projects like “Happy Endings for Everyone?!” and “Part of….” support the creative development of children and promote social justice and teamwork. There is more information about these projects here.
The multitude of initiatives that are often developed specifically for socially disadvantaged children shows how important it is to promote creativity and social integration. It's not just about games and activities, but also about active participation and political education, which is important for our children.
The weekend is rounded off with the inauguration of a new meeting place in Alladorf near Thurnau. Politicians, including Minister of State Michaela Kaniber, gathered here to celebrate the newly designed space, which will benefit the community.
Overall, the weekend offers a variety of opportunities to get active, support and celebrate together!
