ASCEND unterstützt Kinderhilfe Eckental mit Geldspende

Nuremberg, October 2021 – Children suffer particularly in emergency situations. With the "Knuddel-Ralphi", the Kinderhilfe Eckental has been supporting sick and injured children requiring emergency treatment for years. The cuddly teddy bear brings the children great joy, gives them a sense of security and helps them through pain and fear. ASCEND GmbH has now supported the campaign with a cash donation of 500 euros. "This has already made it possible to deliver 50 new comfort teddies to hospital emergency rooms and ambulance services in the Nuremberg district," says Corinna Steffl, office manager of Kinderhilfe Eckental GmbH.

"For us, the donation is a matter of the heart," says Christian Heckel, Managing Director of ASCEND GmbH. According to an emergency physician, the plush comforters are a calming agent free of side effects, taking away injured children's terror of an accident and their fear of the hospital. Children can use the teddy to show where it hurts, and the treating doctor can demonstrate how to listen to the heart and lungs or apply a bandage. This robs the moment of its terror and prevents traumatization.
