Hotel anniversary in Binz: 3,500 euros donated for swimming training!
Festive atmosphere in Binz: A popular hotel on the Baltic Sea celebrated its 30th anniversary and launched a great initiative. Instead of gifts for the hotel, the management wanted the guests to make donations for the DLRG local group in Binz. And the response was overwhelming: around 3,500 euros were collected tagesschau.de reported. This money will now be used for swimming training.
The DLRG, which is primarily active in the area of water rescue, has big plans! dlrg.de explains that the funds will be used to keep the costs of swimming lessons at a lower level. Ultimately, swimming is a fundamental skill that many children should learn in order to be safe in the water. During the summer months, the volunteer swimming instructors from Binz teach over 100 children who come from both the surrounding area and the holiday resorts.
Swimming for everyone
The swimming courses are a hit and are very popular. The open water courses in the Baltic Sea off Prora in particular attract many children. But that's not all! The money collected will also go towards a new jumping device for boats in order to meet the requirements of the examination regulations.
The DLRG relies on donations to be able to carry out its important work. Every year the organization saves hundreds of people from drowning in Germany. This is done not only by conducting swimming courses, but also by training rescuers, all of whom work on a voluntary basis. The financing comes primarily from donations, which are used for special equipment and the basic and further training of the rescuers.
Support and commitment
In the coming weeks, especially at Christmas time, the DLRG is increasingly calling for donations. There are many ways to support: from sponsorships to one-off donations to donations in a will. The donation area dlrg.de offers various options and welcomes any support that can promote the vital work of the DLRG.
Overall, the hotel's initiative in Binz shows how important community work is and how big things can be achieved together with small steps. The commitment to the DLRG and the support of swimming training make a valuable contribution to safety in the water and help many children learn to swim. This is not only commendable, but also a great example of the power of solidarity in the region!
