Beteiligung am Hessentag in Weilburg
A joyful occasion at the beginning of the
year: Karl Kuebel was given the
“Courage-Orden” of the Homeland and
Carnival Association Buerstadt on the
16 th of January. The award holder of the
previous year, Karl Cardinal Lehmann,
recognized in his laudatio the achievements
in the life of the 95-year-old
entrepreneur and benefactor. His wife
Mary Anne Kuebel, the daughter Hannah
Kuebel and the chairperson of the Foundation
Council, the District Administrator
Matthias Wilkes conveyed appreciative
greetings in the name of Karl Kuebel.
Since the benefactor was due to health
problems not able to attend the ceremonial
act, he received the fraternity from a
delegation of the association who visited
him in his residential house on theTromm
in Wald-Michelbach in South Hesse.
During the 45 th “Hesseday”, which took place in
Weilburg an der Lahn in June, Karl Kuebel
Stiftung presented its work at an information
booth. The focus was the fund-raising project
“Hesse helps the Victims of Tsunami” and the
announcement of the 3 rd “Hessian Family Day”
on 9 th July in Hofgeismar. Among many visitors
were also the Hessian Prime Minister Roland
Koch and the CDU delegate of the Hessian
Parliament Ilona Doerr – here in conversation
with Katrin Toenshoff, employee of Karl Kuebel
Stiftung.
