Charity involvement

Our colleagues in Berlin help out in the Berliner Tafel foodbank's sorting warehouse and thereby make an indirect contribution to less food waste.

In Frankfurt, colleagues provided gifts for the "Christmas in a shoe box" campaign organised by MädchenbüroMilena, a support charity for refugee and non-refugee girls and women. The lovingly packaged cardboard boxes were met with beaming smiles all round.

Our Hamburg colleagues actively supported the “Leben mit Behinderung” festival, for people with disabilities and their families: tables and benches were dismantled afterwards and the area was cleaned up diligently.

The Jena office is very athletic, with sponsored runs and rows for good causes. And there's a sporting connection in their other community activities such as painting a hut for the German Life Saving Association (DLRG) or in the renovation of the front garden for the Kindersprachbrücke Jena e.V.

All year round, our colleagues in Karlsruhe collect clothing for the men's homeless shelter. And their social engagement also extends to painting at the animal shelter and being brave blood donors.

Our Leipzig colleagues like their chartiable engagements to be athletic and raise money for good causes while completing laps in the "Stadtlauf" city run.

We helped the Initiative krebskinder Kinder Munich e.V., a children's cancer charity, by sending Christmas newsletters to regular donors and members. As well as actively supporting both the Münchner Tafel foodbank and animal protection society, we sponsor children in need worldwide through the children's charity PLAN.

Our colleagues made children's faces light up by participating in the "Christmas in a shoe box" campaign. And the residents of the Franziskusstube, a shelter for marginalised people and those in need, could look forward to chocolate Santa Clauses.

For socially disadvantaged families, we send care packages full to the brim with everyday groceries to the Hamburger Archen children's charity at Christmas time.
