Thank you very much for nominating us as a “#KölnBessermacher”!
The Imhoff Foundation is celebrating its 25th anniversary and awarding 25 prizes to organizations that make Cologne a better place to live. We are delighted that one of our visitors nominated us. Thank you very much for this recognition, which shows that our work is appreciated! All Cologne residents can nominate organizations until August 31. On December 4, a jury at Cologne City Hall will decide who will be among the 25 “Bessermacher für Köln”.
Keep your fingers crossed for us!
