Families waiting for a family audiobook
Hours of listening time arise on average from three days of raw recordings
Mothers and fathers have been included in the project since 2017
Children get the chance to grow up with a family audiobook
Working hours require the production of a family audiobook
We offer all underage children of terminally ill mothers and fathers the chance to receive a family audiobook: With mom or dad's voice. A personally narrated audio piece full of love, memories and lifelong answers to the question: ‘Who were you, Mom/Dad?’
In the family audiobook, the parents tell their life stories. It's authentic. Personally. Lovingly. This is important for those affected on their difficult journey of saying goodbye and precious for those who are left behind.
The Familienhörbuch gGmbH is an independent and non-profit organization based in Cologne. The professional work on the audiobiography directs the gaze of illness, pain and loss to the fullness of life lived. After the death of the parent, the audiobooks accompany the orphaned children and families on their path of grief and support a healthy – active and self-determined – management of grief. The offer is free of charge for project participants.

We are happy to send you flyers, posters or donation boxes free of charge.
