Carmen Fett cycles from Düsseldorf to Australia!
Since March 31, 2018, our lecturer "Frau Fett" has been traveling by bicycle. Her journey began in Düsseldorf and is taking her through Eastern Europe and Asia to Australia. The aim of the trip is to encourage people worldwide to do good for others and to raise funds for KRASS e.V..
Short-term projects in international cities
KRASS e.V. is not only active across Germany, but has also already implemented projects in Athens, Shanghai, and other cities. For this reason, Ms. Fett travels specifically to these locations to carry out short-term projects with children on site. In this way, young people can experience cultural and artistic programs directly and develop their creativity.
Message of the journey
Ms. Fett describes her mission as follows:
"I will demonstrate my willingness to work with your support on the future and the positive development of children and young people by giving them the opportunity to discover and develop themselves culturally and artistically."
Symbolism of the red balloons
On her journey, she is accompanied by red balloons. These are photographed with people she meets. The red balloon symbolizes hope, equality, and love. It embodies values and goals that our society should strive for, regardless of faith or nationality.
Impact and meaning
The bicycle journey combines adventure, commitment, and cultural education. It raises awareness for the work of KRASS e.V. and motivates people worldwide to support children and young people. At the same time, the short-term projects in various cities create direct impact on site.
Ms. Fett has already traveled over 2000 kilometers and reached her first milestone in mid-April by crossing the border into Austria. In recent weeks, she has also passed through Slovakia and Hungary, reaching her next destinations of Slovenia and Croatia. The hospitality and appreciation she has encountered along the way constantly motivate her for this long journey.
