Committed citizens who have been involved in the community for at least five years can be proposed.

This admirable performance will be particularly emphasized on the family action day, which takes place on September 20, 2025 in the Viba Nougat world in Schmalkalden.

The gala is awarded two prestigious awards: the district administrator's Medal of Honor. Suggestions can be submitted by August 31, 2025, and conveniently online, by email or classic by post. If you have any questions, you can contact René Michael, who can be reached on 03693 / 485-8385.

volunteer card: do good and benefit together

Behind it is the Thuringian Honorary Foundation, which, in cooperation with counties and independent cities, actively appreciates the commitment of the citizens. The Thuringian volunteer card is awarded to active volunteers and brings numerous benefits. Owners of the volunteer card can benefit from special offers in the areas of museums, zoos, cinemas and even local public transport. This not only ensures recognition, but also a nice wallet, because the discounts quickly become noticeable.

The advantages are diverse and include reduced entries in a wide variety of attractions. There are an overview of these discounts on the website of the Thuringian Volunteer Foundation or in a practical brochure. So commitment is not only rewarded, but also promoted.

appreciate exemplary commitment

The commitment of Gudrun Hoffmann, Mila Hünger and Renate Fleischer from the Saalfeld-Rudolstadt district is particularly remarkable, which are involved in the “Autumn-Timeless” project and other necessary tasks. Their activities include the food edition to the needy, support in the blind and visually impaired association as well as translation services for refugees. Their commitment is recognized as part of the award of the volunteer card, which is presented by District Administrator Marko Wolfram. A big thank you goes to these three women and all the many volunteers who tirelessly support the community.

Overall, the volunteer gala is a wonderful opportunity to make the passion and dedication of the volunteers visible in the region. So if you have someone in your head who deserves this award, do not hesitate and give your proposal until August 31, 2025! We are committed together for a strong and lively Schmalkalden-Meiningen!
