PROJECTS

Aid projects across the world – for more quality of life

The LR Global Kids Fund e. V. has quickly become an internationally active organisation because, from the outset, our aim was to support children in every LR country. In Ahlen, Germany, where LR is headquartered, the LR Global Kids Fund e. V. has been supporting the Lunch Club e. V. ever since its foundation back in 2012. The charity has  also contributed significantly to the Lunch Club’s expansion and transformation into today’s RTL-Kinderhaus. But the charity has also been funding projects internationally for many years, for instance in France, Italy, Bulgaria, Poland and Austria. In 2015, a corporate volunteering programme was launched: hundreds of employees at the company headquarters volunteered and dedicated their spare time to local children’s charities.

We have already achieved a lot. Our overall aim is simple: sustainably improving children’s prospects in life around the globe. True to the motto “together we can do so much more”, the charity has entered into a partnership with the foundation RTL – Wir helfen Kindern e. V. (since 2016) and the charity SOS Children’s Villages (since 2018) to ensure growth and to further professionalise its commitment.

The SOS Children’s Village is located in Sauk, a village near the Albanian capital of Tirana. The main focus here lies on psychosocial and educational support to improve the children’s living situation, because pronounced poverty continues to provoke a lack of education and limited health care.
