A sustainable alliance has emerged from a pro bono project by Hirn Herz Hand eV, with the support of H&Z Management Consulting, which is breaking new ground in Munich's commitment to combating homelessness: the Netzwerk Wohnungslosenhilfe eV (Network for Homeless Assistance).

A milestone for the city's society

Over 100 guests attended the official founding of the association – including Second Mayor Verena Dietl and many representatives of social organizations in the city of Munich. The network connects social institutions, academia, business, and administration with a clear common goal: to make homelessness visible, address it systemically, and overcome it together.

First visible progress

Concrete results are already emerging:

• The founding of the social housing agency "Mietmachen München gGmbH" 👉 Learn more about Mietmachen München gGmbH

• Research collaborations with Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, which provide direct impetus for implementation.

  
  

Hirn Herz Hand eV is proud to be part of this initiative and thanks all the dedicated members of Netzwerk Wohnungslosenhilfe eV who work every day to make Munich more social.
