8. Marwan Moussa’s European Tour, 2024
Op 25 januari vond er een speciaal concert plaats in TivoliVredenburg, want de bekende Egyptische rapper Marwan Moussa trad op! Wij mochten kaartjes weggeven en dit was vooral populair onder de bewoners van Star Lodge ??.
Helaas waren er niet genoeg tickets voor iedereen en kon Samira geen kaartje via ons krijgen. Maar dat lieten haar medebewoners uit Star Lodge niet gebeuren! Ze vonden het zó jammer voor haar dat ze allemaal wat bij hebben gelegd en samen een kaartje voor Samira konden betalen. Een mooi gebaar van vriendschap en verbinding binnen het opvangcentrum! Deze vriendengroep heeft een onvergetelijke avond gehad samen ?.
