Fulfill wishes together: Picking straw stars in the Villach town hall!
In the festive halls of the Villach town hall, a sign of humanity will be set again this year. The Christmas wish tree, which is set up in the foyer of the town hall, has opened its doors and invites the citizens to give joy. From now on, the lovingly designed straw stars, which represent the wishes of people in need, can be picked every day during the opening times of the town hall.
For many people, Christmas is not always the happy time you want. Especially in difficult situations, even small wishes often remain unfulfilled. For this reason, the Christmas wish tree has an important function: it shows how much compassion and helpfulness is in the community of Villach. Mayor Günther Albel describes the project as a "wonderful way to do great things with little effort."fulfill wishes and give joy
The colorful straw stars hang on the wishes and wear anonymous wishes made by the clients of the ARGE social. These wishes are often simple things, but they can make great pleasure. Whether it is a fine body cream, a book, fragrance candles or maybe a sweet treat, every desired wish brings a smile on the face of the recipient. "Every wish, as small he may seem, conjures up a smile on a face when giving," emphasizes the social officer and mayor Gerda Sandriesser.
If you decide to pick one of the stars from the tree, you are asked to hand over the respective request by December 10th at the latest and pack it packed in the ARGE social in Klagenfurter Straße. It is important to add the straw star so that the wish can be clearly identified. At the same time, Mayor Albel and Vice Mayor Sandriesser would like to thank all participants who are committed and contribute to preparing others.
The annual campaign has established itself as an integral part of the Advent season in Villach and puts the values of community and charity in the foreground. "Villacher: Inside, every year show how much heart is in our city," says Albel. This year the wishes were decorated with a lot of love by the children of the Kindergarten Völkendorf, which gives the initiative an additional charm.
In the coming weeks, the tree will continue to emerge in the town hall and many citizens will invite you to help and fulfill the wishes of those who need some support during the Christmas season. The straw stars can be picked daily during the town hall opening times, which gives people the opportunity to bring joy and hope into the hearts of others.
The project is not only a way to meet individual wishes, it also promotes the sense of community and combines the Villacher with a common goal: to give joy and to let the heart of the city shine even brighter. For more information about this wonderful action, which for many is a ray of hope in the cold season, a look at the official website of Villach can be taken.
