Since 2015, Hanseatic Help e.V. has acted as a collection point for donations in kind, a social logistics centre, a network partner and a meeting place for a wide range of people. The promotion of civic engagement, intercultural encounters and social participation are important core concerns. Through Hanseatic Help, more than 300 charitable institutions and, in the Hanseatic Help Stores, needy private individuals are supplied with clothing and hygiene donations free of charge and according to their needs. What is not needed locally is sent to crisis regions around the world. For donations in kind that cannot be used in the charitable sector, Hanseatic Help develops recycling concepts in the sense of a sustainable circular economy.
