Hol dir das Community-Shirt!
Mit den weltwärts Community Shirts aus dem Support Trägt-Shop zeigst du nicht nur Zugehörigkeit – du unterstützt auch beim Aufbau des Community Funds von grenzenlos: Mit jedem Kauf fließen 10 Euro direkt in den Community-Fund. Der Fund unterstützt ehemalige internationale Freiwillige im Globalen Süden dabei, eigene Projekte umzusetzen, sich weiterzubilden und regionale Community-Events außerhalb Deutschlands zu organisieren. Warum das wichtig ist? Viele Süd-Nord-Ehemalige haben bisher deutlich weniger Zugang zu Förderung, Netzwerken und Mitgestaltung haben. Das wollen wir gemeinsam ändern!
For me, the weltwärts community means being part of an international group of like-minded people who want to make a difference.
