Major donors and sponsors
Diakonie Altholstein helps people in various emergency situations between Kiel and Schenefeld with a comprehensive range of advice, education, social work and care. We are the social work of the Protestant church.
But diaconal work is more than just basic care. We want to create and nurture community and provide uncomplicated help when people are in need. To do this, we rely on the support of third parties.
In the past and today, donations are valuable for the work in our facilities because they secure and improve the quality of life for the people who place their trust in us.
Our mission statement describes how we understand our work and how we handle donations. We help with competence and charity and empower people to lead a self-determined life.

We ask for donations, we value every donation and cultivate the trust of our supporters. We keep you informed - because we know that only with your donations can we shape the future together.

Doing good beyond your own lifetime
It's never too early or too late to think about how you want to arrange your personal affairs for later. A will expresses your own wishes and gives you the opportunity to ensure that your assets are used as you wish during your lifetime. A will therefore offers the opportunity to do good and create something lasting.
If you are interested in this special form of support, we would be happy to talk to you personally. We look forward to your call.

Condolence donation
The death of a loved one is a profound loss that is difficult to cope with. You and your deceased loved one lived and laughed, cried and hoped together. And you shared values that defined your life together. At such a time, it can be comforting for you to think that you can stand up for these shared values beyond death with a condolence donation. Ask your mourners to make a donation to Diakonie Altholstein.
