Individual donations of this magnitude are “by no means everyday”. Karthoff thanked the Lohn volunteers for their great commitment.

One of these machines costs around 45,000 euros. ”

NEWS_NEWS The association "Help for children and adolescents with cancer Lohne" has now contributed 2000 euros to the bone marrow typing campaign of the Dammer Gymnasium. The club’s executive board became aware of the campaign through the OV report, explained Angelika Meistermann (center), who presented the symbolic check together with her board colleague Benno Pille (center right).
The money goes to the non-profit organization DKMS, formerly the German Bone Marrow Donor File, for the typing and registration of potential bone marrow donors. The organic performance course, which organized the campaign this year, as well as school director Ludger Kässens (left) and teacher Ruth Vöge (2nd from right) were delighted with the support..
NEWS_NEWS If children have cancer, this is probably the toughest test for a family. The chances of a cure are around 80 percent today. In this crisis situation, however, a great deal of support is required – often also financially. The name says it all at the Lohner association "Help for children and adolescents with cancer". The volunteers around the board members Henry Voigt, Bernhard Almes, Dirk Christ, Benno Pille, Angelika Meistermann and patron Hedwig Dettmer work for affected families and help: unbureaucratically and quickly.
The aim is to help the children and their relatives in difficult times, says Angelika Meistermann, treasurer of the association, which is in this year celebrates its tenth anniversary and plans an event on October 7th. "Families from the district of Vechta receive financial support from us so that they can concentrate on their child and his recovery."
The association contributes money for typing campaigns in the region and the work of the German Leukemia Research Aid. The association, which has 52 members, pays the various projects and assistance through donations. "The money comes from companies and private individuals," reports Meistermann. For example, if someone celebrates a milestone birthday, gifts are often avoided. "Instead, the jubilee then asks for donations for our club."
Companies often came forward before Christmas to contribute to a good cause. Together with other groups, “Aid for Children and Adolescents with Cancer” – of the same name but not to be confused with the Vechta Association – has been funding the work of special education teacher Daniela Lüker in the Oldenburg Children’s Hospital since 2010. "She takes care of the children and adolescents and carries out tasks for which the nurses often do not have time," says Meistermann.
The Lohner association also contributed to the furnishing of the games room, in which Lüker looks after the young patients. “The toys are also from us. It all runs on the short official route. One call is enough and we will take care of it, ”says the salary worker.
Another campaign that provides monetary support to the volunteers is the “Wunderzeit” project. In order to make the stay and the waiting time more pleasant for the children, since 2013 the two theater educators Annekatrin Stauß and Julia Warneke with their little companions "Rufus" and "Feline" have been visiting the oncological outpatient clinic of the Oldenburg Children’s Clinic once a week. The principle is based on the fact that the examinations are taken up playfully and that the children perceive the visit to the oncologist more positively. "It is great to see how the children shine when the puppeteers come," says Meistermann.
The association has since expanded its help. After an amendment to the statutes, the support is no longer valid for young cancer patients alone, but instead
generally seriously ill children and adolescents as well as their parents and siblings. For some time now, “Help for children and adolescents with cancer” has also been working intensively with the social welfare office of the city of Lohne. Every year, the association finances projects worth five figures in euros, says Meistermann.
