Legendary Engl. writer
"In the small world in which children live, there is nothing that is so clearly recognized and felt by them,
as injustice. "
Children have NO choice!
Children cannot choose which world they are born in ...
... whether in Europe, Africa, America, Asia or Oceania;
... whether in the city or in the country;
... whether in a small or large family;
... whether in a rich or very poor family;
... whether in a heartwarming or cold family;
... whether in a loving or violent family.
The fact is that there is more misery in our own country than we can imagine. Something has to change in our society so that there is no place for child poverty, hunger, neglect, violence and pedophilia.
Let's get together
some children's eyes shine
Our project "Children 4the Planet" is aimed at needy children in our own country. Poverty still overshadows the everyday lives of more than a fifth of all children in Germany. That is 21.3 percent or 2.8 million children and young people under 18, who are often at risk of poverty for many years of their childhood.
It's shameful and a clear sign that our country has failed!
The reasons
Children are dependent on their parents. If they earn little money or are dependent on welfare, there is not much left for the children. Even the child benefit that every family is entitled to is offset against Hartz IV rates, for example.

The consequences
What are the consequences of child poverty? Those who experience poverty in their childhood often suffer from it all of their lives.
- Educational poverty
- Mental disorders
- Social disorders
- Developmental disorders
The help
There is no magic formula for combating child poverty. Politicians must take care of it first.
However, our policy fails, so it is all the more important that the population take action.

Die GffK eG "Helping-Hands"
Help where urgent help is needed!
It belongs to the GffK like the air we breathe.
Especially with the children - after all, it is these new generations who need to be protected and encouraged.
In our society there should be child poverty, hunger, abuse
or neglect have no place
the GffK is actively committed to this!
Support a child as a sponsor
In a sponsorship you temporarily take care of a child in need. You can support the child financially, cover the needs (school books, clothing, etc.) or simply be a confidant for the child. Especially when it comes to being a confidant, many children are looking for a sympathetic ear.
If you are interested, please register so that we can contact you. Of course you can have a say in the choice of child sponsorship.
Every year in June / July
Our Head-Up Wish Mountain.
This activity was meticulously developed based on the children's wishes to adequately prepare them for the new school year.
The children have general wishes such as: School bag, pencil case, ink box, books, sports shoes, etc.
Let's make it easier for these children to start a new school year!
The children may submit their wishes to us and we will publish the wishes on this website. Interested people can help to fulfill these wishes. You can choose one of these wishes and reserve it by clicking button.
Then you have two options:
A) You get the wish yourself and send us the material object, which we will give to the child with your greeting (which would be our preference). Or.
B) You transfer the required amount to us and we will get the desired item.
Once a year - a present for ME
Our Christmas wish tree.
"Once a year a present for ME" was Jonas' wish. He has never had a gift for himself at Christmas and has always had to share with his siblings.
These wishes are also not about grand and expensive gifts, but rather about personal gifts. Little Jasper has always wanted a big chocolate Santa. Lema is happy about a roll-up sweater and Kathy has been wishing for ice skates for years.
That's what our Christmas wish tree is for:
The children are allowed to make their wishes and we publish the wishes on this website. Interested people can help to fulfill these wishes. You can choose one of these wishes and reserve it by clicking the button.
Then you have two options:
A) You get the wish yourself and send us the material object, which we will give to the child with your greeting (which would be our preference). Or.
