Pass the Crayon

CRAFTY INTENTIONS

„In some instances, the best way to help out is by being less ambitious and taking on a humble task. One particular twosome who did exactly that are Martin Ringenbach and Sevin Özdemir...they were compelled to set up Pass the Crayon, a drawing group for refugee kids they started entirely from scratch.“

MAGICAL KINGDOM OF LEARNING

„And, recently, in Berlin, Germany, a refugee help group — PassTheCrayon — began using the comic site’s Comic printables to help Syrian and other refugee children learn the German language. They translated the text for the comic-drawn printables into
German and also used them for art therapy for the children.“

GERMAN UNITY DAY 2016

​

We have been invited to celebrate Germany's national day in Dresden. The holiday commemorates the anniversary of German reunification in 1990 and is a really important day to the Germans. Our two days there were filled with events such as concerts, a visit of Dresden, coffee with the Minister President of Saxony, Mr Tillich, and a sound and light show. The President of Germany, Mr Joachim Gauck, also thanked us for our commitment and for the work we have been doing.
