Christmas wishes come true.

For the third year in a row we are choosing to forego the production and mailing of Christmas cards, and instead using the financial savings to fulfill the wishes for those in-need in our communities by providing for our "Donate instead of print” campaign at Häring locations worldwide. Christmas should be a magical time for everyone - including our planet.

100% paperless. 100% from the heart.

We wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a healthy start to the New Year by digital means. Christmas wishes that feel doubly good, knowing first the projects we financially support with this campaign:

 

Bubsheim, Germany:

Organization: Glücksmomente4Kids

Project: We are helping a family fund riding therapy for their two children in wheelchairs.

The story: The tragic accident of the youngest daughter of a family from the district of Villingen-Schwenningen is a heavy blow for all of them. The older sibling was already born with limitations, so now both children are wheelchair-bound. In addition to the challenge of psychological stress, the family now has to deal with rehabilitation costs. The organization Glücksmomente4Kids supports them during this difficult time.

With our donation, we are contributing to the costs of riding therapy for the two children.

 

Piotrków Trybunalski, Poland:

Organization: SZLACHETNA PACZKA (engl. Noble Package).

Project: We prepare a "noble package" for a family of 3 in a difficult financial situation.

The story: Renata lives with her husband Maciej and their 13-year-old daughter Zuzanna. The family's everyday life is dominated by Maciej's illness, as he has been on dialysis for many years. Now he has suffered a spontaneous fracture of the spine and needs 24-hour care, which his wife provides. She has had to give up her job for this, which is why the family is in a difficult financial situation. It is admirable how Renata, despite her modest means, provides for her husband's professional rehabilitation, also motivates him to exercise, helps him physically and psychologically, and is there for their child.

With our donation we meet the three most important needs of the family:

  • a new laptop, since the old computer cannot support distance learning programs.
  • food, as the food supply relieves the household budget and gives the family a sense of security.
  • a supply of cleaning products and cosmetics to relieve the household budget.

 

Taicang, China:

Organization: Taicang Voluntary Association

Project: We grant small wishes to 25 children and teenagers in need.

History: With the help of the Volunteer Association in Taicang and the Civil Affairs Office, we found 25 children in Taicang whose families are in difficult situations, for example, due to the mother's mental illness or the sudden loss of the father. These children were asked what things they urgently need.

With our donation, we are giving the children and young people picture books, Chinese educational readings, stationery and watercolor markers. 

 

Lavonia, USA:

Organization: Heart2Hart

Project: We grant Christmas wishes to 4 children from families in need.

The story: With the help of the Heart2Hart organization, we found four children in Lavonia whose families are in need. For a 13-year-old boy and three girls aged 11, 10 and 8, their wishes will come true this Christmas.

With our donation we give the children clothes, shoes, books, sporting goods and toys.
