Welcome to the Studierendenwerk Karlsruhe

Dining hall / Studierendenwerk closed between 16.8 – 20.8.

Solidarity project: 7.200 Euro for refugee children in Lebanon

Guests gather for charity - start of a new project for Nicaragua

Guests of the Studierendenwerk Karlsruhe have collected 25 cents for each solidarity meal and 10 cents for each solidarity muffin over the past two semesters for a MISEREOR project, that supports Syrian refugee children in Lebanon. The proceeds in the amount of 7,200 EUR were handed over by Michael Postert, Managing Director of the Studierendenwerk Karlsruhe, to Eli Kleffner from MISEREOR. At the same time the new project was officially launched: under the motto "Metabolism - turning food into fair jobs" we are collecting in the period 2019/20 for a project from "Brot für die Welt" that supports seamstresses in Nicaragua.

Free workshops from the Psychological Help
