Bakelite Supports Children’s Hospice

Bakelite Synthetics has been supporting the Balthasar children’s hospice in Olpe (Germany) for many years. Balthasar children’s hospice is a place to live, laugh, and assist grieving families.

“When your child is terminally ill, we create a supportive environment for families going through a very difficult experience.”

Every year, more than 4000 children in Germany are diagnosed with life-shortening conditions.
Very often children live with these conditions for months, sometimes even years. Bakelite hopes to provide some relief as this time is very exhausting for the children and their families.
