Hope for Friesland

Mission Statement

Project: Hope for Friesland

The Hessian Cultural Development Aid (HCDA) proudly launches Project: Hope for Friesland, an initiative dedicated to addressing one of Northern Europe's most overlooked crises — the alarming lack of humor and the complete absence of Apfelwein in Friesland.

Under the leadership of UNHCF (United Nations High Commissioner for Friesland), Philipp Gürth, our mission is clear:

To bring joy, laughter, and authentic Hessian culture to the Frisian people through cultural exchange, cider diplomacy, and carefully orchestrated humor interventions.

Working hand in hand with local aid forces, the UNHCF teams distribute essential cultural relief: crates of Apfelwein, manuals on proper sarcasm, and emergency dialect lessons in "Hessisch."

Our goal:
To restore balance, preserve cultural dignity, and ensure that every Frisian can one day smile — preferably with a Bembel of Apfelwein in hand.

Hope for Friesland — because even the North deserves a good laugh.
