Disaster relief

We help personally where help is urgently needed. We support people and animals in disaster areas.

fast & personal!

Moving more together

Since the flood disaster in 2021 in Rhineland-Palatinate and North Rhine-Westphalia, our mission has been to help people and animals quickly, easily and personally. Children in particular suffer from the experiences of disasters and war. Here we help with art therapy and animal-assisted therapy to make children's hearts shine again!

Flood disaster aid

Since the flood disaster in the Ahr valley and NRW in 2021, we have been helping with the aid network in flood disasters throughout Europe.

Ukraine war

We are helping people and animals on the ground during the war in Ukraine. From evacuations and providing accommodation to transporting relief supplies.

Natural disasters

We provide international support to regions devastated by earthquakes and fires and help people and animals in need.

Outreach - from door to door

Thanks to volunteer helpers and angels, as well as various donations in kind, we can regularly visit those affected to find out about their basic needs and provide support. Personal dialogue is always particularly important here.

Animal welfare

Many animals are suffering from the after-effects of the flood disaster - long-term physical and psychological damage - and require veterinary treatment that many of those affected cannot afford. We support them with food and veterinary costs.

Reconstruction

Through volunteers and donations in kind, we support the reconstruction of houses, flats and farms that have not received any reconstruction aid.
