White Ring receives donation funds for attack victims - White Ring Supports 475 Magdeburg Attack Victims with €480,000 in Aid
White Ring, a German victim support organisation, has been instrumental in assisting those affected by the tragic attack on the Magdeburg Christmas market last December. The organisation has provided over €480,000 in aid and counseling vouchers, supporting 475 victims so far. This extensive support was made possible by an overwhelming response from the public, with over €1.5 million donated by around 14,400 individuals.
The attack, which occurred on December 20, 2024, was a devastating event that claimed six lives and injured over 300 people. A 50-year-old man from Saudi Arabia was identified as the perpetrator. In the wake of this tragedy, the German Red Cross stepped in to support the victims, donating around €156,000 to White Ring for victim care.
White Ring's assistance is not one-size-fits-all. The organisation tailors its support to the individual needs of each victim, ensuring that aid is provided in the most effective and helpful way possible.
