Educating Germany
Another letter enclosure idea
In discussion with Schulbildung in Familieninitiative e.V. it was suggested that enclosing a brochure that is readily downloadable and already written in German with your letters, from their website, could be a valuable idea.
Have a look at "Homeschooling" or "Freiheit für Bildung" (Freedom to Educate).
This will add only a few cents more to your material costs, but bridges the language barrier where the recipients english is not as fluent as their mother tongue.
Sitting down last night drafting the letter I am to send to the "5 Women in Power" seemed like an insurmountable task - to keep it short and sweet that is. I think I will add an appendix to the end instead of quoting everything in the body of the text. There is so much I want to tell them! LOL. I have given myself a 2 page maximum!
How are your letters going?

The Status Quo
For those new to the situation in Germany: home educating is (perceived as) illegal.
The common citation for forced school attendance is to protect against parallel societies.
Educating Germany discusses arguments for (and against) legalising home education in Germany.
We report on human rights violations; provide translations of media articles, interviews, court hearings and personal stories into English; and suggest practical ways people, internationally, can lobby for change and support those who long for freedom of education.
