Light for Children Association to Introduce Fees in 2024 Amid Financial Struggles

The 'Light for Children' association, established in 2003, has been supporting children from disadvantaged families and those with a migration background. Jana Huber, the chairperson of the foundation in Traunreut, oversees the organization's operations. However, the association is facing financial challenges in 2024, with expenses for its services set to surpass income.

The association offers homework help, with four supervisors available from Monday to Friday, starting at 13:00. This service, along with others, has been provided free of charge since the organization's inception. However, due to increasing costs, the association will need to adjust its fee structure in 2024 to ensure sustainability.

Over the years, some of the original assistance programs offered by 'Light for Children' have been taken over by the state or the city. While this has helped to reduce the association's workload, it has also led to a decrease in funding. The organization continues to adapt to these changes, focusing on its core mission of supporting vulnerable children.

In 2024, 'Light for Children' will need to introduce fees for its services to balance its budget. Despite these changes, the association remains committed to supporting children from disadvantaged backgrounds, ensuring they have the tools they need to succeed. The organization continues to be led by Jana Huber, who is dedicated to navigating the financial challenges and ensuring the association's long-term viability.
