Royal action for peace: Sternsinger bring hope!

And again the time has come: The time of the star singing has started! Every year brave children and adolescents pull from house to house as the three kings Caspar, Melchior and Balthasar to spread the good news of Christmas and to collect donations. This wonderful tradition, which was launched by the Catholic young group, celebrates its 70th anniversary and has collected a total of impressive 540 million euros for people in need throughout this time. In Austria alone, 19.5 million euros were donated last year, said 5min.at .

This year's Sternsingen has a special focus on child protection and the training of young people in Nepal. These important topics come across broad support, also by high -ranking personalities such as Pope Francis, who sees the children as the lawyers of the poor and needy in Africa, Asia and Latin America. Her nightly forays are not only a celebration of tradition, but also a call to solidarity and charity. The Epiphany campaign ensures that every donation is used effectively - more than 500 aid projects in poorer regions of the world benefit from it, for example in Africa, Asia and Latin America, as can be seen from the information from dka.at
