Press release: Stréck- an Heekelfrënn vum Club Haus op der Heed delights the Stëmm

The group Stréck- an Heekelfrënn vum Club Haus op der Heed from the community of Clervaux has been knitting and crocheting diligently for many years for a good cause. Under the direction of Jeanny Hentz and Christiane Meyer, the group members make many different creative animal figures, which are sold at markets in the region or at the Club Haus op der Heed itself.

Giraffes, sheep, dogs, and many other animals have found new owners over the last few months and a remarkable € 3,000 was raised, which was donated to the Stëmm vun der Strooss.

The official donation ceremony took place on 15 December 2022 at the Club Haus in Hupperdange, in the presence of the director of the house and initiator of the donation, Tania Draut, and the director of the Stëmm, Alexandra Oxacelay. The group members were also present at the handing over of the donation and were proud that their voluntary work is so appreciated by Alexandra Oxacelay: “I am more than grateful to all of you, it is wonderful to see what one can still achieve in volunteer work and many people should take an example from you because you support the poorest in our society with this action”.

The Club Haus op der Heed is one of 7 houses run by the association Foyers Seniors and provides the premises for the group members and helps them with the promotion and sale of the animal figures.
