The Tulips Ball is an elegant annual event that brings together people from all corners in support of charitable causes, combining the elegance of a ball with the excitement of a captivating auction.
In 2022, the Prince Nicolae of Romania Foundation was the beneficiary, raising an impressive 11,500 euros towards planting one million trees in Romania to combat deforestation.
In 2023, the Queen Geraldine Foundation, endorsed by His Royal Highness The Crown Prince Leka II of Albania, received support, aiding children with special nees, poverty alleviation, and women’s empowerment programs in Albania. The Tulips Ball auction raised over 22,000 euros for the Queen Geraldine Foundation.
Over the years, the Tulips Balle has also lent its support to the Order of Malta, JANSDAG (a project of the Order of Malta and the Order of St. John), and Stichting het Vergeten Kind.
This year, we are thrilled to be supporting ‘Johanniter Netherland’ and ‘Diakoniezentrum Borwinheim’. The Order of St. John is known for its contemporary approach to assistance, being pragmatic, goal-oriented, and inclusive. As an umbrella organization, the Order of St. John initiates activities and is actively involved at the governance level in several institutions. The implementation of volunteer activities is delegated to Johanniter Netherland (Stichting Johanniter Hulpverlening).
The Diakoniezentrum Borwinheim is located in the center of Neustrelitz, Germany, and combines the life of the city church community with various social aid services under one roof. It was founded in 1908 by the Evangelical Church Community of Neustrelitz, with the support of and named after Duke Borwin of Mecklenburg. For over 100 years, Christian faith and diaconal work, rooted in charity and social support, have been closely connected at this center.
The Borwinheim offers a range of counseling, meeting, and support services for people of all ages, including:
- Psychological Counseling: Support for individuals, couples, and familiesn in crisis situations.
- Outpatient Educational Assistance: Social – pedagogical family support and educational guidance for families, single parents, and young people facing difficult family situations.
