Social Engagement

For Maren and Cord Kelle, hospitality is what the American philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–82) described as 'a little warmth, a little food, and great rest.'

Cord Kelle is also socially engaged and founded the «KfO – Kochen für Obdachlose Hannover e.V.» which provided a warm meal with a hot drink from December to March, exclusively funded by donations.

In the first few years, the KfO association supported the «Ecumenical Food Distribution», die von Dezember bis März eine warme Mahlzeit mit einem Heißgetränk ausgab, die ausschließlich aus Spendenmitteln finanziert wurden.

Now, KfO supports the «Heilsarmee Korps Hannover» every Thursday with a warm meal for those in need, starting at 12:00 p.m from the Jägerhof's kitchen.
