Oschatz celebrates village festival and supports the needy with the board!

Oschatz, Deutschland - On June 16, the ball season begins in Oschatz - and this with several highlights. The village festival in the Merkwitz district invites you to a colorful program this weekend, while the Oschatzer Tafel supports an important piece of social cohesion in the region.

The board in Oschatz offers a variety of people - around 2000 in need - access to food that is donated by a network of food dealers. Mayor David Schmidt is full of praise for the many volunteers who take care of the distribution of these resources. He wishes that the board can continue to provide a sufficient range of healthy foods, because demand is constantly increasing. Many people from Oschatz are dependent on this support, including pensioners and families who have a hard time making rounds. An analysis shows that around 1.5 million people in Germany are dependent on the help of boards annually, which underlines the importance of this organization. According to the website of Tafel Oschatz e.V., the table has established itself well and proven itself ( Tafel-oschatz.de ).

the electricity memory and the challenges of the board

A explosive topic for the board is the high cost load due to the cooling of food. A large cold room eats a lot of electricity. Michael Lohschmidt, a solar entrepreneur, has now presented a solution that can help reduce these costs. Such initiatives are of great importance, since the plates are mainly financed by donations from large food discounters such as Rewe, Aldi and Lidl. A financial bottleneck could endanger the valuable work of the board and the care of the needy ( lvz.de href = "https://www.planet-wissen.de/schaft/armut_in_deutschland/armut-tafeln-100.html"> planet-wissen.de ).

In order to cover the need over the tables, it is important to inform people that the panel work is not a state duty, but a reaction to the challenges of poverty and social inequality. Many people faithfully believe that they are entitled to food if they use the board. That is not the case. The boards are dependent on our society to tackle together to secure the food supply and continue the work.

celebrations and community spirit

While preparations for the village festival are running in Oschatz, there are also many pleasant celebrations in the area. Merkwitz celebrates its 705th anniversary and Malkwitz looks back on a long tradition with several anniversaries, including 250 years of Kirchweih and 130 years of fire brigade. A concert by the pastor's band "Black Höcher" on Sunday also promises a sociable get -together. For everyone who is still interested in cars, a meeting of IFA F 9 will take place on Saturday at the Neumarkt of Oschatz ( lvz.de ).

on a great festival season! Whether at the village festival or when using the table, the coexistence of the people in Oschatz is very important and offers the opportunity to create beautiful memories together.
