255 Bremen children look forward to free school satchel action!

On June 14, 2025, a warm event took place in the overseas museum: 255 Bremen children were able to look forward to a free school bag with full equipment. This generous campaign was launched by PSD Bank Nord and has been a tradition since 2008. The total value of the donated satchels amounts to over 30,000 euros, a nice sign for the support of families with low incomes in Bremen, where about every third child lives in poverty, how Kreiszeitung reported.

The satchel is not only chic, but also practically equipped: Each package comes with a pencil case, a gym bag, a bread box and a drinking bottle, everything in the same design. Senator Anja Stahmann explained the importance of this campaign during the handover, especially for children from low -income families, who often feel excluded during schooling. "The cost of a satchel is between 150 and 200 euros," she said, which is a significant financial burden for many families.

commitment of PSD Bank Nord

PSD Bank Nord has clearly known its social responsibility with this project. A total of approximately 3,400 satchels have been distributed since 2008, which the bank costs around 25,000 euros a year. "We have a good knack for supporting the right projects and focusing on children and young people," emphasized Dominik Schulte, regional manager of PSD Bank Nord, during the handover of the satchel.

The financing is done by the bank's profit savings, which means that the action is not just a one -off support, but is also long -term and sustainable. This initiative not only covers material needs, but also promotes the well -being of the children and thus creates the opportunity to go to school with joy and without worry.

Bremen families and their challenges

In Bremen, many families are faced with challenges. Access to educational opportunities is strongly influenced by financial circumstances. Actions like this are urgently necessary to create a feeling of belonging and to help the children feel not excluded. The German Children's Agency shows that such initiatives are important in Germany for almost 20 years.

summarized, the school satchel action of PSD Bank Nord shows how important it is to work for our young fellow citizens. At a time when many families have to buy and save, this initiative makes a valuable contribution to equal opportunities and the creation of a solidarity community in Bremen.
