Solidarity bread campaign by the Don Bosco School: 1222 euros for Brazil!

Yesterday was a big day for the students at the Don Bosco Catholic School in Rostock. They celebrated the results of their solidarity bread campaign, which took place over a month in the branches of the Sparre bakery in Rostock and Bad Doberan, with loud applause. The students put in a great effort and sold a total of 1,404 solidarity breads. For each loaf, 50 cents went into the donation box, which corresponds to a total of 1,222 euros for the Misereor project “Brazil: Help for Street Children”. In this way, the solibrot connects the children in Rostock with their peers in Brazil who hope for a better future.

The idea behind the campaign was to not only convey the teaching material theoretically, but also to test it in practice. A group of children took over the organization, designed posters and gave an opening speech. They also organized the tasting of the bread and encouraged advertising in the community. Through this initiative, the children were able to pass on their knowledge about the situation of street children in Brazil and thus show a little more empathy, which is of great importance today. The Sparre bakery is also generous by rounding up the amount and plans to continue offering the solidarity bread in the future.

Social responsibility and community spirit

Such actions are not only a sign of social responsibility, but also promote a sense of community among the students. According to one definition, “social” is often used as a synonym for “communal” or “helpful.” In today's world, this means that we actively look after the needs of others and help where we can. These values ​​are embodied by the children of the Don Bosco School, who set an example of helpfulness and compassion through their commitment.

The term “social” comes from the French “social” and the Latin “socialis”, which shows that these concepts are deeply rooted in our culture. It's about building relationships with other people and providing support. This is not just financial help, but also emotional support and understanding of the challenges that other people have to overcome in life.

Creativity and commitment of the students

The students also show a lot of creativity in the solidarity bread campaign. They not only took care of the event itself, but also independently informed about its importance. This provides a valuable opportunity to address issues such as poverty and social injustice. The learning process is made lively, which helps children develop their social skills.

In summary, the solidarity bread campaign not only shows the commitment of the Don Bosco School and the Sparre Bakery, but also how important it is to stand up for others and act compassionately. We can all learn from the positive experiences of these children and also get involved in social projects - because every contribution counts!
