The children‘s house (KinderHaus Pumuckl) offer a home to 8 children, adolescents and as of recently young adults who, for various reasons, cannot live with their own families.
They live in a converted farmhouse right in the middle of the beautiful Westerwald region, in a family-like community with fixed attachment figures. Not their disability, but rather personal development beyond difficult circumstances is the educational focus.
All this in compliance & cooperation with other involved institutions.
Good news for everyone interested in helping out: due to great demand there will be 9 more Harlys, each available for order as part of of this charity event.
Each respective buyer will be able to pay a fixed amount on top of the Harly‘s purchase value, which will go directly to KinderHaus Pumuckl!
These orders will be available on the day after the deadline, so from 03.09.2022 onwards. Remember only 9 of these Limited Edition Harlys will be available.
