#Wasdunichtsiehst at neunerhaus - Make Hidden Homelessness Visible

Homelessness is often invisible, especially when it affects women. The social organization neunerhaus is now drawing increasing attention to the situation of hidden homeless women by setting up art figures in public spaces and thus creating public awareness. For this, energetic volunteers were needed.

This urgent ad-hoc help was conveyed to Time Bank by Monika Gröger.

Time Bank Community reacted quickly and so the artworks could be installed at Christian-Broda Square and Esterházy park on 19 October 2021.

“I didn't believe it and I am overwhelmed by what the Time Bank community gets together. I would like to thank Time Bank very much again. As I said, I dared not hope and my wildest hopes were exceeded.” (Monika Gröger)

“As an experience that I particularly enjoyed the positive and friendly interaction between the employees from the Neunerhaus, the civil servants and us helpers. The interest shown by passers-by during assembly and dismantling was also a great experience ” (Christoph Kunert)

“I've wanted to get involved social work for a long time. I was very pleased to be able to invest a few hours here. From my personal background, I know how quickly it can happen that you suddenly find yourself without an apartment - that's why this topic from the Neunerhaus particularly appealed to me. ” (Barbara Eichriedler-Ledl)
