The community is very important for the girls. Together with their carer, they learn routines in areas such as exercise, meditation, study times and house and garden work.
Many thanks to the Schöck Family Foundation for supporting the hostel.

Many thanks to Fair Styria for supporting this important project.
… the girls at the hostel received a surprise visit from Robin Schöck, Managing Director of the Schöck Family Foundation. This was of course very exciting, as they were allowed to proudly show off their house and garden immediately after their final exams. Of course they also harvested and cooked for the guests.
Many thanks to Schoeck Family Foundation for supporting the hostel.
