Recognition Program Labeled as "Merit Cross for Founding Fathers": A Social Initiative Based on Achievements - Recognition Scheme for Female Business Owners: Merit Cross for Achieving Women Entrepreneurs
Hey there! Let's chat about a heartwarming story that's taking the world by storm - the honor bestowed upon the masterminds behind the Musaik social project, Luise Boerner and Deborah Oehler.
These talented visionaries are being celebrated with the prestigious Merit Cross of the Federal Republic of Germany, an honor that our dear Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier will hand over on May 22, right here in Delitzsch at the Baroque Palace. The Musaik team shared this exciting news.
The reason behind this well-deserved recognition? Luise Boerner and Deborah Oehler have been working tirelessly to open up an entire universe of music for children and encouraging collective playing through their phenomenal project, Musaik - Grenzelos musizieren. They offer underprivileged youngsters the chance to learn string and wind instruments, absolutely free, and provide them with top-notch musical education.
Some interesting facts about Musaik:- Over 100 children from more than 20 countries have already benefited from this program.- It was founded in 2017, based on the El Sistema model from Venezuela.- Luise Boerner experienced this El Sistema model in a unique way during her time in Peru and decided to establish it in Dresden.- Many of the children in the program come from refugee families.- The Saxon State Orchestra Dresden supports the project too.
Now, let's take a moment to reflect on the potential impact of musical social projects such as Musaik:
- Breaking Down Cultural Barriers: Music projects act as powerful tools for change, fostering unity and mutual understanding across diverse backgrounds.
- Strengthening Communities: Such initiatives promote social cohesion by encouraging cultural exchange, developing mutual respect, and fostering a sense of belonging.
Receiving the Merit Cross of the Federal Republic of Germany is a testament to the extraordinary contributions made by Luise and Deborah to our country. Congratulations to these inspiring ladies who are making a difference, one note at a time! 🎶💪
