In June, the primary school Hobeuken in Sprockhövel organised a charity run in aid of „steps for children“ in Okakarara. Inspired by her daughter Karoline Piepel, who is currently completing a worldwide-year at our first project site in Namibia, Gotelind Heidbrink-Piepel took care of the smooth running of the event and enthusiastically reported on the sporting participants: „Despite continuous rain, all 104 schoolchildren, accompanied by six teachers, an intern and several mothers, hiked an 8 km route between 8:00 and 11:30.“
Beforehand, the schoolchildren learned about the various projects of steps for children in class, before subsequently finding sponsors for their run - each kilometre completed by the children was supported by a donation. After their strenuous hike, the children proudly received their sponsorship money. The very considerable four-digit amount is to be used directly for the renovation of the sports and playground area in Okakarara.
steps says THANK YOU for this great effort and the warm commitment of Hobeuken Primary School!
We will keep you informed about your fundraising project.
