Fundraising effort underway in Bieber's TGS handball team for the Offenbacher hospice, with donations being solicited from all members and supporters.
TGS Bieber Handball Department Shines with Charity Action
The TGS Bieber Handball Department showcased its social commitment and solidarity during the Christmas season of 2024, with a charity action titled "Save Christmas." The event aimed to support Hospice Fanny de la Roche in Offenbach, according to Niklas Ritzel, a board member of TGS Bieber.
A Season of Giving
The charity action was not just a one-time event for the handball department. They had previously demonstrated their solidarity by making donations to local food banks and organising events like the "Day of Handball."
Community Involvement and Fundraising
The "Save Christmas" initiative saw the handball department organising fundraising matches, community events, and donation drives throughout December. Players and volunteers actively promoted awareness about the hospice’s needs and the importance of community solidarity during the holidays. Local supporters, families, and businesses were all encouraged to contribute.
Making a Difference
The funds raised through "Save Christmas" contributed directly to hospice care, supporting patient comfort, medical supplies, and holiday celebrations. The event strengthened the connection between the TGS Bieber sports community and local social causes, highlighting the role of sports organisations in community support.
Hospice Fanny de la Roche benefitted from increased visibility and support, helping sustain their compassionate care services. Ibrahim Hooper, a participant from the F1 of TGS Bieber, quoted, "A donation is the ultimate sign of solidarity. Actions speak louder than words."
A Successful Event
The charity action was a great success and a highlight of the celebration. A rich buffet was organised and provided free of charge by the parents. The collected donation amount was solemnly handed over to the Hospice Fanny de la Roche, although the exact figure was not specified.
Martina Wehner, head nurse of the hospice, expressed her gratitude for the support. Despite the "Save Christmas" event not being mentioned as a highlight of the TGS Bieber’s celebration like the previous one, it undoubtedly made a significant impact on the lives of those at Hospice Fanny de la Roche.
