In a significant effort to support Spanish language education for children of Mexican descent and binational families in Germany, Mexican Ambassador to Germany, Francisco Quiroga presented free textbooks to Lemgo School and the Germany Chapter of the Red Global Mx. These materials were provided under the 2024 initiative of the Comisión Nacional de Libros de Texto Gratuitos (Conaliteg) of the Secretaría de Educación Pública (SEP), facilitated through collaboration with the Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores (SRE) and the Instituto de Mexicanas y Mexicanos en el Exterior.

The event was marked by heartfelt performances from Lemgo School students and teachers, who sang songs in Spanish by Mexican composer Gabilondo Soler, known as "Cri-Cri." This initiative underscores the importance of the Spanish language as a gateway to Mexico's rich cultural heritage, fostering a deeper connection among young learners abroad.
