Help brings joy: Caritas projects in the Zollernalb district bloom!

In the Zollernalbkreis, numerous Caritas projects flourish, which are supported by the "Help brings joy" campaign by Schwäbisch Media. One of these projects, Cariditas, not only promotes ecological gardeners, but also social integration. Long -term unemployed and refugees can grow together vegetables and herbs together, visit workshops and benefit from a social lunch table. This interaction from community work and learning not only offers culinary delights, but also strengthens the self -confidence and economy of the participants. An annual harvest festival crowns the success of the committed gardeners.

In addition to the projects of Caritas, women affected by violence receive women in Frauenhaus Zollernalbkreis a safe refuge. Support for coping with violence, advice on applications and leisure activities is offered there. The employees attach great importance to understanding and adapting the individual life situations of women. The aim is to break through the cycle of violence and to promote the self -determination of women. The women's shelter not only offers protection, but also a platform for the (re) discovery of their own resources, which enables residents to actively shape their future.

Both initiatives impressively show how help can be provided for self -help. Both in social gardening as well as in the women's shelter, emphasis is made to personal development and courage, which is aimed at a positive change in the realities of life of those involved.
