Kinderhospiz Bärenherz Leipzig

The main mission of Bärenherz is to provide loving and competent support to families with terminally ill children. The hospice is committed to improving the quality of life for children and their families by considering individual needs and offering holistic care. The values of Bärenherz are based on love, respect, and the willingness to advocate for the needs of families[2][5].

• Funding through donations: Since Bärenherz does not receive government grants and health and nursing insurances only cover part of the costs, the hospice is urgently dependent on donations. The association Kinderhospiz Bärenherz Leipzig e.V. and the Bärenherz Foundation secure the necessary financial resources[2][5].
• Structural expansions: In January 2018, construction work began to expand the hospice, which included an increase in the living area, additional accommodation options for relatives, and special rooms for therapy and grief groups[2].
• Support from partners: Bärenherz receives support from companies and private donors who contribute to the continuation of the hospice's work through regular donations and actions[3][5].

The Kinderhospiz Bärenherz Leipzig e.V. is an indispensable support for families confronted with the diagnosis of a life-limiting illness of their child. Through its comprehensive services and loving support, Bärenherz provides these families with the necessary assistance and relief in an extremely difficult life situation.
