Lilien pros help with food distribution for those in need
On Sunday afternoon (November, 8th), three Lilien professional players took part in a food distribution event at Europaplatz in Darmstadt. Kai Klefisch, Carlo Sickinger, and Hiroki Akiyama assisted volunteers from the initiative "Helping the Homeless in Darmstadt" by handing out warm meals to individuals experiencing homelessness or living in need. The initiative has been supporting people in distress for over a decade, providing not only hot food but also various other forms of assistance at Europaplatz every Sunday.
As every Sunday, the homeless and needy were treated to a hot meal by the „Helping the Homeless Darmstadt“ initiative. But this Sunday was special: The volunteers received active support from three Darmstadt 98 players. Starting at 1pm, Kai Klefisch, Carlo Sickinger, and Hiroki Akiyama pitched in at the west exit of Darmstadt’s main train station, distributing goulash and chicken soup and bringing smiles to the faces of those present. The Darmstadt players also took time for personal conversations and were always ready to listen to people’s concerns. With their commitment, the three Darmstadt 98 players sent a clear message: Every person deserves appreciation, respect, and a hot meal.
