„Be the change you want to see in the world.“

(Mahatma Gandhi)

International crises, conflicts, natural disasters, and socio-political circumstances often cause people in various parts of the world to fall into hardship through no fault of their own, leading to undignified living conditions.

The purpose of the Chahabadi-Stiftung  is to help people in these situations and improve their living conditions in the long-term

This is why the foundation provides financial support for carefully chosen (developmental) projects locally and internationally, which help in severe emergencies.

 

The Charity

This non-profit foundation was established in 2023, and we are happy that we were able to support projects both domestically and abroad for the first time in 2024.

Hannöversche Tafel (Food Bank)

Distribution of Food

Every day, volunteers of the Hannover Food Bank collect food that is no longer for sale but still of good quality from companies, supermarkets, stores, and bakeries to distribute it to people in need in Hannover.

Through this approach, baked goods, vegetables, fruits, and ready-to-eat products are made available for free pickup at distribution points. These items are then distributed to over 20 social organizations, including shelters for the homeless, centers for women and children, refugee services, and programs for individuals struggling with addiction. Additionally, food is provided to 20 institutions as part of the Children’s Food Bank program.
