Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work

The Netz für Kinder, a nonprofit organisation in Vorarlberg, Austria, has supported around 3,500 children and their families over the past 30 years.

The group steps in to help when government support is lacking or insufficient, providing assistance with issues like poverty and parental overwhelm, including challenges related to conditions like ADHS.

The Netz für Kinder delivers its support through social education groups, volunteer work, and several initiatives including talENTE.mobil, talENTE.schmiede, and talENTE.rat, all aimed at giving vulnerable children a sense of normalcy. The organisation funds its work through events like charity golf tournaments and popular duck races, the ninth of which will be held this year, with all proceeds going directly to support its programs.

At a celebration marking the anniversary, leaders emphasized the importance of supplementing public funding and acknowledged the many volunteers who have contributed to the organisation’s success over the decades.
