K. Dittmar (Project Manager)
In Berlin, one out of every four children lives below the poverty line; in the severely affected district Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg in Berlin, this is even one out of three. The negative impacts on children’s health and development are considerable, and reach even further by also influencing their integration into society and at school. These circumstances have caused those responsible in the district of Friedrichshain to provide a warm meal to children affected by poverty– the “Kinderküche” (children’s kitchen).
Objectives of the children’s kitchen
- To provide a warm meal
The children’s kitchen was established to ensure that children living in poverty will have one warm meal a day at no charge.
- To protect children and promote general health
It is important to us to familiarize children with a healthier lifestyle in a way that they will enjoy. To the extent possible, we wish to practice preparing healthy and fresh foods with them. We do not consider the children’s kitchen to be just a place to get a free meal. This is where children can learn about hygiene, nutrition, health, and social togetherness in general, and can put what they have learned into practice. Moreover, the children are given the opportunity to discuss any issues they may have in their lives with our staff of educational experts and to hear their advice.
- Inclusion of parents
We particularly wish to include parents in our activities at the children’s kitchen. They support us as volunteer cooks on the weekly “parents’ cooking day”. Those of the parents whom we reach in the children’s kitchen and who have any needs in terms of social welfare are informed about what help is available to them and where they can get it.
- Cooperation with other facilities in the region
We understand the children’s kitchen to be one aspect of the services available to disadvantaged children in the region who are affected by poverty.

Guten Tag,
stellen Sie in nächster Zeit noch mehr Projekte ein? Wir möchten Ihnen gern noch etwas Geld zukommen lassen. Das geht natürlich auch anders. Aber wenn sowieso demnächst noch etwas bei Betterplace geplant ist, ist das für uns komfortabel und lohnt sich.
Vielen Dank für die Auskunft.
Beste Grüße,
Miriam Vogt

Hallo Frau Vogt,
wir freuen uns über Ihre Nachricht und Ihre Absicht, für die Kinderküche noch etwas zu spenden! Ich habe heute neue Bedarfe bei Betterplace eingestellt, so dass die konfortable Möglichkeit dort wieder nutzen können. Wenn Sie es wünschen, könnte ich Ihnen für Ihre wirklich tolle Website eine Logo der Kinderküche per email zusenden, so dass Sie die Kinderküche dort im Rahmen der 1%-Projekte darstellen können.
Herzliche Grüße
Klaus Dittmar
PS: Ich will noch die Gelegenheit nutzen, Sie auch auf unser neues Spendenprojekt hinzuweisen: Unter dem Motto "Räder für Einhorn" werden wir ab nächster Woche auf Betterplace um Unterstützer für einen Kleinbus für Kinder mit Behinderungen werben.Wir würden uns freuen, wenn wir sie als Fürsprecher, Unterstützer oder soger Förderen gewinnen könnten!

Hallo Herr Dittmar,
schon vor einiger Zeit hat mich Ihr Projekt begeistert und unterstützungswürdig. Auch wenn zurzeit kein aktueller Bedarf eingestellt ist würde ich sehr gerne einmal die Kinderküche besuchen kommen. Wäre Ihnen das Recht? Wann würde es Ihnen am besten passen? Ich komme aus Friedrichshain und würde mich sehr gerne noch mehr für unseren Kiez engagieren.
Beste Grüße und bis hoffentlich bald
