Since 2017, we have deliberately not sent out Christmas presents and instead support three charitable organisations in their important work.

WEISSER RING
A German association that helps the victims of crime and violence as well as their relatives.

Plant-for-the-Planet
“Let’s plant a million trees in every country in the world!” - this is the aim of Plant-for-the-Planet, a children’s and youth initiative. It is the cheapest and easiest way to bind CO₂, hit zero carbon emissions and alleviate the climate crisis.

The UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR)
The UN Refugee Agency operates worldwide and steps in wherever people are risking their lives to seek protection and refuge. In emergency situations, UNHCR aid workers are often the first people on the scene, helping to supply refugees with everything they need to survive.

Being responsible and striving towards sustainability are two of the principles in our corporate policy. We practice them daily: To ensure the quality of our products. To create a clean environment that is worth living in. For the sake of our employees whom we respect and support. And for the sake of the wider society that we feel indebted to – we intend to help to improve living conditions wherever we can.

‘Giving, not receiving’ for projects that help and benefit many people
With our Christmas campaign 'Giving, not receiving', we have made it our mission to work for a better future. Our donation to three charitable organisations is intended to help turn need into perspective and provide necessary support to those in need of protection.

2020
‚Giving, not receiving ' in turbulent times
When significant changes shake familiar processes, sustainable aid becomes all the more important. This is a good reason for us to support again the charitable organisations WEISSER RING, Plant-for-the-Planet and the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) with our donations.

2019
Also in this year we follow the motto ‘Giving, not receiving’.
We are happy to support the important humanitarian, social and environmental projects of the non-profit organisations DER WEISSE RING, Plant-for-the-Planet and the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) with our donation.

2018
‚Giving, not receiving‘ continues
The positive response to last year's Christmas campaign 'Giving, not receiving' has encouraged us to do the same again this year. Once again we have supported the organisations WEISSER RING, Plant-for-the-Planet and the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) with a generous amount in their charitable work.

2017
‚Giving, not receiving‘
With this concept in mind, we have deliberately not sent out Christmas presents in 2017. Many companies in our customers’ circles and beyond do the same based on legal requirements, compliance guidelines and official rules. But instead of purchasing gifts, we have made substantial donations to the following not-for-profit organisations: WEISSER RING, Plant-for-the-Planet and the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR).
