Shopping in the supermarket in times of Corona - not without danger for risk groups. To protect affected people from infection, Jessica Bazalev and Karin Götz, business administration students at THI Business School, launched a shopping service without further ado. They first printed flyers and distributed them on bulletin boards in supermarkets, churches and pharmacies. As a result, eight people came forward and the two students did the shopping for them free of charge in February and March. Now the two are looking for successors to continue the project.

Bazalev and Götz have had their action credited as a social project for their studies. These are mandatory in all bachelor's degree programs at THI Business School.
