Going on vacation or enjoying a leisure activity: What many of us take for granted often remains a pipe dream for children, young people and adults with disabilities. With a special Christmas campaign, Hauenstein Hotels and Klinik Schönberg, in collaboration with the Denk an mich foundation, are making it possible for small and large wishes of people with disabilities to come true.

With the start of the Advent season, Christmas decorations can once again be seen in many stores, hotels and restaurants. For Kevin Furrer, Director of the Deltapark Vitalresort in Thun, this is about more than just decorations: "Our Christmas trees fulfill wishes," he says and explains: "From 1 to 27 December 2023 Christmas trees - decorated with a total of 200 "wish baubles" - will stand in the five Hauenstein Hotels establishments. The wishes were sent to us by the "Think of me" foundation. They are attached to small pieces of paper on the baubles and are usually modestly worded: "I wish for a horse riding trip in the countryside," says one. Someone else wishes for "BMX training" or "a break from the stresses of everyday life for my parents". Guests can take one of the wishes and donate towards its fulfillment. It's easy to do at reception or via the Twint QR code. "
