Because the number of church members back the number of church tax payers to get the social services of the Caritas significantly less money from the diocese than they did years ago. "We do not want to connect to the Western Wall and reflect instead on our creativity," said Caritas board member Hans-Theo Horn recalls the founding of the Caritas Foundation.
After a lead time of three years, she went in 2007 to start and now has a capital of 60,000 € accumulated. In addition to private donations and donations went to the endowment and proceeds from previously six charity concerts, each under the motto "recorded" notes against the emergency "money for a good cause. The seventh benefit concert is on 30 January, by 17 clock in St. Mary of the birth Althofstraße under the baton of Werner Schepp (photo) on the stage.
music lovers who listen with 15 € for the concert ticket is not only good but also do good to expect a tuneful program of Christmas choral music from England and choral music by Johann Sebastian Bach. Come out to play musically with a project and the youth choir of the parish of St. Mary's Assumption, the cantor Werner Schepp us his colleague Jens Christian Vogel from St. Mary Birth and the Folkwang students Jens Hilger (piano) and Julia Uthmann (harp).
sees the number of concertgoers Caritas board also Horn "as a barometer for the appreciation of the social work of Caritas." The six previous benefit concerts at the historic St. Mary's Church Church Hill was well attended. Although the Charity Foundation in first time this year will distribute income, you need given the current interest rate no great imagination to develop, to imagine that must be made with the current share capital of no great leaps. Therefore, at the Caritas Foundation is currently on the principle of hope, hope for tax-favored contributions, donations, or project-based grants.
The first returns of the Foundation Board would like to let you get the industry Horn Cafe at the Caritas Centre at Hing mountain road. Here are mentally ill people a day structuring employment offer. Come to Horn and his colleagues at Caritas director Regine Arntz and Urban Dean Michael Janssen sometimes not, like King Sisyphus ago, when they witness how the demands on the Catholic social organization, because poverty increases, but decrease the available church tax money?
Horn answered this question so again happy with his life motto: "Not the Beginning is rewarded, but the perseverance!" And so he remains convinced "that cause the church to go."
