Artisans at the Haferlmarket back the local children's shelter

In the heart of Freyung, the Landshuter Haferl Market once again proved to be a unique experience for its visitors, as well as a testament to the intersection of art and social commitment.

This year, the market, which traditionally takes place at the beginning of September, saw the participation of 29 ceramic artists, all graduates of the renowned Landshut Ceramic School. The artists showcased their handcrafted works, with a special focus on making the children's daily life at the Caritas Children's Home St. Vinzenz more beautiful through art.

The sale of ceramic goods at the Haferl Market stand contributed to the donation, which was handed over during the official Haferl Market ceremony. Kerstin Klebl and Wolfgang Sturm, representatives of the ceramic artists, expressed delight at the success of the fundraising event.

Mayor Alexander Putz expressed pleasure at the donation benefiting the children's home, stating, "It's heartening to see the community coming together to support our children in need."

The Landshuter Haferl Market's donation, in addition to previous years, once again supports the children at the Caritas Children's Home St. Vinzenz. The funds raised will be directly used to support the children, with employees Julia Berger and Sophia Kroeninger thanking the Haferl Market on behalf of the children.

Employees at the children's home also expressed gratitude, stating, "These donations make a significant difference in the lives of our children. We are truly grateful for the support."

The annual donation action for the Caritas Children's Home St. Vinzenz is a tradition at the Landshuter Haferl Market. The market provides a platform for these artists, allowing them to showcase their talent while making a positive impact on the community.

This year, the Haferl Market donated approximately 3,650 Euros to the Caritas Children's Home St. Vinzenz, a sum that will undoubtedly bring joy and comfort to the children living there. The Landshuter Haferl Market continues to be a shining example of the power of art and community coming together for a good cause.
