Herthaner helfen
‘Herthaner helfen’ (‘Herthaner helping out’) has become a tradition at Hertha BSC. Every year since 2009, the run-up to Christmas at the club has been about finding ways to help others. With a very special kind of advent calendar, the Hertha Christmas team grant the wishes of those in tough circumstances from the 1st to the 24th December, no matter how big or small. As usual, this was the case in 2020 as all participating Herthaner showed once again how important it is to give something back. It’s not about the size or value of the gift. The most emotional stories are the ones that tell of small gestures of good faith, of wishes that can’t be fulfilled with money. In years gone by we have created plenty of these stories, and they touch us deep down. We would like to say thank you to all the families who have given us their trust, our partners and sponsors who have supported the initiative, and all the Herthaner who have given back over the Christmas period. Outside of the festive period, Hertha’s helpers have also been doing their bit during the COVID-19 pandemic. The ‘Herthaner helfen’ project got back underway and provided help and support to those in need while putting a particular focus on the health of those in our society.
