Helping to help
Many people work at EEW and many of them have a big heart. Some of them help other people who, for various reasons, are not doing as well. While an individual project might not be that big, the overall positive impact over the years is large. That is why EEW is a company that helps its employees to help others. In 2022, there were once again many campaigns and initiatives to provide support and bring people together. Here is just a small selection ...
More than €35,200 residual cent donations
Since the launch of the “residual cent donation” initiative in 2015, EEW Group employees have donated a total of approximately €35,200. They do this by voluntarily having the cent amount deducted from their monthly salary. The money collected in this way is doubled by the company and donated to four projects annually. Employees can suggest which organisations should receive the donations and the final decision is made by the Central Works Council.
€2,000 for children’s hospice service
As part of the EEW Open 2022 golf tournament, registration fees raised a total of €850 for a good cause, which EEW topped up to €2,000. The money was donated to the organisation Familienhafen, a mobile hospice service for children in Hamburg.
€3,000 for charities Rückenwind and KöKi
EEW’s committee representing young workers and trainees raised around €3,000 at various events to support two social projects in Helmstedt and Braunschweig. Around €900 was donated to the charity Rückenwind e. V., which helps victims of sexualised violence. The charity KöKi – Verein zur Förderung körperbehinderter Kinder e. V., which supports children with physical disabilities, received €2,100.
