The mission statement of our Kolping Family provides information about the self-image of our community, about values and attitudes that are important to us - beyond the statutes - more specifically and more comprehensively. The mission statement helps us to justify our actions both internally and externally. In our strategic and direct management tasks, the mission statement provides us with orientation in our thoughts and actions. The joint, participative development of this mission statement demands and promotes the identification of employees with "their" organisation and, among other things, the motivation to work in it.

For every association, the statutes are the formal constitution, so to speak, which regulate life within the organisation and in relation to external parties. The statutes are sent to the authorities when the organisation is founded or changed, who then check whether they comply with the Association Act. The statutes are the formal framework within which the life of the organisation "takes place", so to speak. This can be supplemented, for example, by the mission statement, which further specifies some of the contents of the statutes and formulates them in a way that is pleasurably activating for the "user". Let's hope so!
