Football legend Mike Büskens inspires St. Josef with a big visit!

In the St. Josef child and youth welfare facility in Gelsenkirchen, there was a very special visit last Friday, which made the hearts of the young residents beat faster. The ex-soccer professional Mike Büskens, known from the glorious Eurofighter era of FC Schalke 04, answered the questions and wishes of the children and adolescents. He not only came as a surprise guest, but also brought a generous donation of 1004 euros, which he ran as part of his social project "Mike Macht meter".

The joyful mood in the facility was noticeable when Büskens announced his support for the activities there. It became particularly interesting when he asked about the specially designed football AG. The children were immediately enthusiastic about the prospect that the former professional will soon keep a training session with them. This interaction will not only promote your football skills, but also a great experience for young athletes.

A look at the background

Mike Büskens, who received a lot of recognition for FC Schalke 04 during his active time, has been involved in social projects for some time. With "Mike Macht Meter" he aims to help disadvantaged people and improve their living conditions. His visits to institutions such as St. Josef are part of this initiative and underline his connection with the region in which he started his career. The combination of sport and social engagement shows how important it is to bring not only the joy of football, but also the values of team spirit and solidarity.

In a photo that documents this special day, in addition to Mike Büskens, some of the people responsible and trainers of the St. Josef facility can also be seen. Matthias Hommel, Martin Roth and Florian Veßhoff beamed with joy over the unexpected visit, while Ms. Büskens and Olivier Kruschinski from the Schalke Markt Foundation were also present. This meeting and the good mood, which resulted from it, made the facility a still living place for the children living there.

The initiative of Mike Büskens not only shows how athletes can use their influence to do good, but also, how important it is to have role models that inspire young people. Such donations and personal visits make a significant contribution to increasing the self -confidence and joie de vivre of the children. A deep thank you goes to Mike Büskens for his commitment and support.
