Working together for a nonviolent future
The season of love and joy is just around the corner.
A wonderful opportunity to support a project that teaches children how to interact with each other without violence.
With this year's Christmas donation, we are supporting the "Faustlos" project run by the "Bündnis für Kinder" foundation. This is a program designed to promote social and emotional skills and prevent aggressive behavior among kindergarten and elementary school children.
Alliance for Children

Donation for the "Faustlos" project
With this scientifically evaluated program for kindergarten and elementary school, children learn social behavior, empathy, and understanding for the feelings of others in a playful way. They learn to control their own impulses and to express anger and frustration in a nonviolent way.
The Faustlos project strengthens children's personalities and promotes their social and emotional skills, especially those that curb violent tendencies, such as empathy, impulse control, and dealing with intense emotions such as anger and rage.
By promoting these skills, children and young people feel more confident and are equipped to deal with intense conflict situations without resorting to violence. Faustlos aims to empower children and young people to deal with conflict without having to use their "fists."
