Since 2010, Nadine Weigel, an editor at the Oberhessische Presse, has been supporting a children\u2019s home in a suburb of Mombasa, Kenya. While conducting research for a feature story on various social projects, she came across the completely dilapidated orphanage during her trip to Africa. The journalist was confronted with dramatic scenes. Without hesitation, she decided to help right there on the spot. <\/p>\n
What began as a spontaneous act of support that immediately saved a child\u2019s life turned into long-term assistance. Together with several fellow activists, Nadine Weigel founded the nonprofit organization \u201cHelp for MiRO e.V.\u201d in 2014, which she now leads as president. <\/p>\n
Two groups of students from Steinm\u00fchle School found Nadine Weigel\u2019s project so worthy of support that they decided to donate the proceeds from their fall festival activities to \u201cHelp for MiRO.\u201d<\/p>\n
Class 13d sold old geography maps that were laid out on the sports field. The maps are no longer needed, as map data is available online and displayed on screens.
\nThe Interact Club, a Rotary-sponsored service club for children and young people, sold fruit cocktails to guests at the fall festival. <\/p>\n
Total proceeds amounted to 625 euros, which Nadine Weigel gratefully accepted. The photo shows representatives from both groups, who were supervised by Principal Bj\u00f6rn Gemmer. The \u201cInteractors\u201d can be recognized by their white polo shirts. <\/p>\n
If you’re interested in learning more about the association’s work and its project, it’s worth taking a closer look at the website www.help-for-miro.de<\/a>.<\/p>\n
