Overview
- The AWO-Kreisverband Salzland operates the Tafeln in Schönebeck, Hecklingen and Staßfurt and will oversee the grant distribution.
- Deutsche Fernsehlotterie’s €195,500 pledge responds to growing demand and steeply rising operating expenses.
- Funding will enable the purchase of new refrigeration systems and dedicated transport vehicles for each site.
- Additional personnel hours financed by the grant aim to expand service capacity for roughly 5,000 regular users.
- Mario Kannegießer said the support is vital for positioning the Tafeln as sustainable centers of food aid and community engagement.
