Generous gift: LR Global Kids Fund donates 200,000 euros at the 28th RTL Donation Marathon
Ahlen, 17th November 2023 - Today, the LR Global Kids Fund e.V. (LRGKF) made an important television appearance on RTL
The Ahlen-based organisation was a guest at the 28th RTL Donation Marathon of the "Stiftung RTL - Wir helfen Kindern e.V." foundation. During the studio appearance, Kirsten Ueckmann, Chairwoman of LRGKF, handed over a generous donation cheque for 200,000 euros to RTL charity boss Wolfram Kons.
"This is the eighth time the LRGKF has taken part this year, but the TV event is still always something special for us, especially the cheque handover! I would also like to thank the 'Stiftung RTL - Wir helfen Kindern e.V.' foundation for the great organisation, which worked smoothly as always," sums up Ueckmann.
The joint partnership between the LRGKF and the "Stiftung RTL - Wir helfen Kindern e.V." foundation provides long-term support for disadvantaged children and young people. They are given access to healthy meals, a wide range of educational opportunities and effective personal development programmes that pave the way for a promising future. The annual RTL Donation Marathon marks the highlight of this joint commitment. The generous donation of 200,000 euros, presented to the foundation by the LRGKF, will benefit the RTL-Kinderhaus Lunch Club Ahlen. During the handover of the donation, the short film shows the Lunch Club's newly designed garden, which was created according to the children's wishes. Today, the children use and enjoy the garden for playing and "eating". The footage was shot at the beginning of August - on the occasion of the opening of the new garden at the RTL children's centre.
"Like every charitable organisation, we also rely on the generosity of our supporters. We certainly don't take their loyalty for granted and are proud of our joint commitment," emphasises Ueckmann.
