In 2024, employees and friends will once again send a strong signal for healthy and sustainable nutrition and ecological responsibility with 14,200 organic boxes.

On Saturday, August 10, 2024, just over 100 dedicated helpers gathered in Hemmingen-Hiddestorf to fill the organic lunch boxes with a healthy breakfast for the newly enrolled children. The delivery took place on August 12 and 13, 2024, so that the first-graders received their organic lunch boxes shortly after starting school. The 100% recyclable box continues to consist of at least 75% renewable raw materials and thus sets an important ecological impulse. In contrast to previous years, there was no symbolic handover this time; instead, the supporters, sponsors, celebrities and friends were present directly at the packing event. Among those present were the Minister of Education Julia Willie Hamburg, Prof. Dr. Jorge Groß from the IDN at the University of Hanover.
