Direct aid for former Prisoners of War (POW)
The associacion KONTAKTE e.V. supports POW from the former Soviet Union , especially from the Ucraine, Belarus, Armenia and from Russia. Due to the fact, that the partner organizations seldom notify of new victims of Nazi Germany nowadays , aid has shifted to social and medical areas instead of the former sole payment of 300.- Euro.
There also was an intensive correspondence between KONTAKTE and the victims, which produced a psychological relief to the victims of Nazi Germany in itself.
RUVD has supported the associacion KONTAKTE since 2005 with the aim to fulfill its statutes.
With date of 30.6.2020 we ended the transfers , because there were no persons left who were entitled to get the money. From 2005 until 2020 we had transferred the total sum of 144.000.- Euro to about 480 persons.
The project is now closed .
