Rotary Club Deggendorf donates 2000 euros for seriously ill children!

A warm sign of solidarity: The Rotary Club Deggendorf generously donated 2,000 euros to the Haus Anna children's hospice in Eichendorf. This support aims to significantly improve the care and support of seriously ill children and their relatives in the region. The presentation of the symbolic check took place recently during a tour of the hospice, which was also attended by the club's president, Dr. Akiko Ishida-Gück, was present. Fortunately, Alexandra Santl, who runs the children's hospice, was also present and the check was ceremoniously presented.

What does this generous donation mean specifically? First of all, it shows how important such initiatives are in promoting the quality of life of children in serious health situations. The Haus Anna children's hospice is a place that offers professional support but also emotional support for affected families. The work of the hospice is indispensable for many parents who are in a challenging phase of life.

Fundraising and networking

The Rotary Club Deggendorf is not only active locally. Other Rotary Clubs, such as those in Mainz and Ingelheim, also support seriously ill children. According to that report They supported outpatient palliative care, which was launched in 2021 and costs 490,000 euros. An initial donation of $100,000 from Richard Illgen and Irene Rosenfeld through the “Illgen Rosenfeld Charitable Fund” helped create an expanded network to support sick children and their families.

This project shows how Rotary clubs are closely connected and how they work together to provide financial assistance and expertise. The partner clubs from the Netherlands, Great Britain and France have also played a role in funding to ensure sustainable palliative care. Trained palliative care specialists will care for 30 to 40 children per year and ensure that these children receive the best care they need.

In order for the offers of help to remain constant, the commitment and support of the community is essential. The Rotary Club of Deggendorf represents a valuable part of the entire network that is prepared to stand up for the most vulnerable in society.
