Rheine. The Christmas season is a time of reflection. The network “Where to? At home in Rheine” has once again joined forces with the Emsgalerie to launch a wish tree campaign for people in need.
Since December 1st, you can find a wish tree from the network “Where to? At home in Rheine”. People in need have passed on their wishes to the network, which were then hung on the wish tree in the Emsgalerie. Visitors to the Emsgalerie have the opportunity to fulfill these wishes and hand in the gift to the Emsgalerie center management by 22 December.
This campaign was a complete success last year. Over 100 wishes were fulfilled. The recipients were overwhelmed by the lovingly wrapped gifts and the feeling that someone had thought of them.
The “Where to? At home in Rheine” network consists of many different institutions such as Aktion Selbsthilfe e.V., Treff 100, the station mission Rheine, the soup kitchen Rheine, the Caritas housing emergency aid, the residential group for young adults and the Kremer-Haus homeless facility.
