Our volunteer meeting in March

At the beginning of March we finally got together again in person for an evening with volunteers. Since summer this was our first meeting in real and live! With good Lebanese food and Bavarian crossover music, we were able to exchange ideas once again.

We welcomed the newcomers to the team. On behalf of the KulturRaum, Sabine Ruchlinski thanked everyone for their perseverance and commitment during the difficult winter months.

Despite all the joy of seeing each other again, everyone felt a heavy heart in view of the war of aggression that had just begun in the Ukraine. The stories of our volunteer Maria, who herself comes from the Ukraine and is with her, were particularly touching KulturRaum on site committed. A few days after our volunteer meeting in the LUISE, the rooms of the cultural center were converted and have since been used as emergency accommodation for refugees from the Ukraine.

The volunteers and full-time employees of the KulturRaum have also been dealing with the question of how we can help in the situation with new initiatives but also with our existing offers for weeks.

We very much hope that we will be able to talk about this and other things at many face-to-face meetings in the coming months.

Many thanks to the musicians of the Unterbiberg court music and the catering of BeirutBeirut for your valuable contribution to the success of this evening!
