Menschen für Kinder e. V. is a nonprofit association founded in 1996 to support children in need, particularly children affected by cancer and leukemia. Based in Solms-Albshausen, the organization works in Central Hesse and across Germany, helping fund medical research, targeted treatment in individual cases, and essential, long-lasting equipment for children’s hospitals. Its projects include support for clinical research, direct assistance to families, and visits and activities for young patients. A scientific advisory board provides guidance on the association’s work.

The organization raises funds through donations, sponsorships, membership, and community events, including its annual charity cycle tour. It also organizes activities such as sailing trips and hospital radio initiatives. With more than 2,400 members, Menschen für Kinder invites individuals and businesses to contribute as donors, sponsors, volunteers, or members; membership starts at €15 per year. The association reports that sponsors cover necessary operating costs so that donations can reach children. Its website shares project updates, donation information, events, and annual reports.
