Christmas for everyone: Together against loneliness in Stuttgart!

Giebelstr. 66, 70499 Stuttgart, Deutschland - Christmas Eve 2024 does not become a contemplative festival for everyone. While many celebrate in the warmth of their families, lonely and homeless people face a difficult reality. In the Stuttgart region and beyond, however, various initiatives have developed creative offers to give these people a little Christmas joy. The club restaurant TSV Weilimdorf opens its doors on December 24th to offer the needy free food, drinks and gifts. "Everyone is welcome here," promises landlord Dimitrios Evangelopoulos and emphasizes that there are still places, even if there may be waiting times, such as SWR reports .

The Evangelical Society Stuttgart shows a similar commitment with its traditional event "Eva’s Stall". On December 24th and 25th, people who are alone or live in precarious conditions are invited here. Around 500 guests are expected to be given a festive Christmas dinner, a service and musical performances. At the same time, other facilities, such as the Martinskirche in the north of Stuttgart, ensure that lonely people can come into contact at daily events, such as reports .

gastronomic offers for all

In the Bodensee-Oberschwaben area, Caritas Konstanz also sets a sign with a white sausage breakfast that is already offered in the Stephanshaus on Heiligmorgen in order to give the homeless and single people a little community and warmth. In Radolfzell, the AGJ homeland assistance association organizes a Christmas party with coffee, cake and a musical framework by a person affected. The Koch Kurt Schökle in Biberach has prepared 200 menus for socially disadvantaged people who are distributed before Christmas Eve. Such actions are a valuable distraction from loneliness for many people affected, which hurts particularly on a day and Christmas Eve.
