Nicole Anger gives away school bags: Help for Magdeburg's first graders!

On July 6, 2025, we have a good occasion to celebrate in Cologne - the first day of school for many children! Nicole Anger, a committed member of the state parliament from Magdeburg, wonders whether the kids are looking forward to their first day of school. She has decided to give away ten school bags to first graders who are filled with everything you need for school: pens, booklets and small surprises. A nice sign in times when many families have to deal with rising prices.

The challenge is increasing, especially for single parents and households with several children. Nicole Anger has recognized how important it is to bring joy and support even in these difficult times. The funding of the school bags comes according to Meetingpoint Magdeburg from her increase in diets, which she wants to help them sensibly. Parents who would like support during this time can report by email at wkb@nicolegan.de by July 18, 2025.

Help for children with poverty

More and more children in Germany are affected by poverty. This makes an engagement like Nicole Anger that is all the more important. Caritas, which is active in Vienna and Lower Austria, is committed, for example, to help people in emergencies, regardless of origin, religion or gender. The approach is clear: recognizing and acting to help where help is needed. Here, too, the support of families plays a central role in difficult financial positions. Caritas has around 50,000 volunteers who work every day to improve the lives of the needy. More information on the work of Caritas can be found on wirhelfen.shop.

Current initiatives like this are essential. The AWO has also adopted the topic and realizes that better monetary equipment is crucial to combat child poverty. Since 2009 she has been involved in the base of children, which would like to reorganize the framework conditions for future financial support for families. The goal is to create a fair and poverty -resistant system - an approach that is more than just a step in the right direction.
