Bad Nauheim: Neighborhood aid celebrates new rooms and 20 years of commitment!

in Bad Nauheim, the neighborhood aid shines in new splendor! After 20 years of hard work and tireless efforts, the committed team around Traubott Arene finally moved into modern rooms in Kurstrasse. The new offices not only offer space for encounters, but also for important aid campaigns that previously took place in the much too narrow Rittershausstraße. "We now have really comfortable opportunities for encounters here," enthuses Arens, while he is proud to lead through the new rooms.

The neighborhood aid has established itself as an indispensable contact point for older and health -limited people in the past two decades. Around 60 volunteers and employees support seniors, young families and even refugees Ukrainian women. With over 530 members and supporters, the association is an important pillar of the community. And now, with the new, modern rooms, the work is getting even more effective. "In the end, we had so much operation in the Rittershausstrasse that people had to wait in the hallway," recalls Arens.

financial support and new technologies

The neighborhood aid was just awarded the Citizens' Prize, which is endowed with 500 euros and is urgently needed for the new premises. In addition, the city parliament has approved an annual amount of around 6,500 euros for the additional costs of the rent. This financial support comes at exactly the right time, because the new rooms are not only modern, but also technically up to date. Arens, who comes from the IT industry, plans to position neighborhood aid as a mediator of new technologies and even offer user courses.

The initiative is also part of a project that aims to professionalize neighborhood aids. The “German Talk” takes place every Tuesday, in which interested parties have the opportunity to practice the language and make new acquaintances. "We accompany people on the way to the second phase of life and show perspectives and possibilities in this way," is the club's credo. With these new possibilities, the neighborhood aid Bad Nauheim will be able to help even more people!
