Deutscher Kinderhospizverein e. V.
Support for the German Children's Hospice Association.
Since its establishment, the proWIN Foundation has been committed to supporting children and families in stressful life situations. A long-term partner is the German Children's Hospice Association, which supports families with children and young people with life-shortening illnesses from the time of diagnosis until after the loss.
2025

In 2025, the foundation was able to support the association with €20,000. This funding made it possible for eight young people to spend a week together in Hoogeloon (Netherlands) for a week of education and encounters.
The donation cheque was symbolically handed over by Kea van der Poel on behalf of the proWIN Foundation.
One focus of the week was on participation: The use of special wheelchair bicycles made it possible to go on excursions together that would otherwise have been virtually impossible. These experiences strengthen self-confidence, courage to face life and the feeling of being able to actively participate in life despite the illness.

The week also offered:
- creative workshops,
- joint activities in nature,
- Time for exchange, closeness and friendship.
We would like to thank the German Children's Hospice Association for its dedicated work and everyone who supports the proWIN Foundation. Where support arrives, moments are created that last.
