Gathering Student Grievances: Junior Legislative Body Compiles School Complaints

The Marburg Youth Parliament is once again gearing up for its annual school bag collection campaign, with a goal of providing essential school supplies to children and young people in Sibiu, Romania. This initiative, now in its 15th consecutive year, is a testament to the town's commitment to sustainability and resourcefulness.

The "Help for Sibiu/Hermannstadt e.V." association continues to lend its support to this worthy cause, working closely with the Marburg Youth Parliament. This year's collection is also being facilitated by the "Marburger Tafel," an organisation dedicated to fighting hunger and poverty.

Since 2010, over 2,700 school bags have been collected in Marburg, making a significant difference in the lives of many children in Sibiu. This year, the campaign aims to continue this tradition, collecting as many functional and used school bags and backpacks as possible.

The collection will take place at the Youth House in the Youth Parliament office (Room 410) and the reception. Donations can be made until Thursday, October 2, during the following hours: Monday to Wednesday from 9 am to 4 pm, Thursday from 9 am to 6 pm, and Friday from 9 am to 12 pm.

The school bags collected in the fall will be taken to Sibiu, Romania, where they will be delivered to those in need. This campaign is more than just a donation drive; it's a sign of solidarity and a commitment to making a positive impact on the lives of others.

In addition to supporting the school bag collection, the Marburg Youth Parliament encourages residents to stay informed about important town hall and city life news by subscribing to the City of Marburg newsletter.

Together, let's make a difference in the lives of children in Sibiu. Donate your used but functional school bags and backpacks today!
