On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of our company, we donated a total of 100,000 € according to the motto "Mission Kindeswohl". Each of our employees was able to express a wish for a donation to which project of the heart a part of the donation should go. Almost half of the total donation will go to the employees' projects of the heart. The remaining amount will go to other institutions and projects. Around €10,000 went to aid organisations for children in Ukraine.
Tobias & Rainer Mörk, Owner Family
The topic of donations is of great importance to us. Numerous organisations support children and babies in growing up, even in difficult situations. That is why we donate 100,000.00 € to different organisations with whom we want to make the world a better place for children.
Organisation of the month
The Peter Maffay foundation
Experiencing and using nature as a therapist is the goal in all the facilities of the Peter Maffay Foundation. "We want to give injured souls courage and confidence again. Nature with all its facets is the best therapist for this," says Peter Maffay.
I chose this foundation because I have been involved with it privately and have already donated privately a few times. Peter Maffay is a compatriot whom I want to support and thus also give something back to the country where I was born.

Arthelps
ARTHELPS is an initiative of creative people and artists that helps people from socially disadvantaged backgrounds in a very special way: with art. The various imaginative projects give a stage on which they can discover, get to know and live out their artistic potential. ARTHELPS gives them a voice. Through the exhibitions and the sale of the results, their hopes and fears are brought to the public - and thus make new creative projects possible again.
My heart's project is the organisation Arthelps. Arthelps changes the world with creativity and passion, this organisation gives every child the love they need.

Families should be created wherever children are welcome. And if the road is a bit rockier, it is easier to walk with a good counselling service.

For me, cancer is one of the most serious diseases. I have experienced this in my own personal sphere. Especially in children, cancer is also a burden on siblings and above all on parents.
Every person affected who beats cancer fills me with joy, which is why I am grateful for the work of the German Cancer Aid.

It is important to support these children and young people and to make their remaining life as beautiful as possible.

At Katharinenhöhe, it is not only the body that is treated. The focus here is on the physical and emotional recovery of the young patients, their siblings and the entire family.

The suffering of children is omnipresent. Every third day, a child in Germany dies as a result of abuse. Protecting them is our obligation. We must not close our eyes.
(Milena Harant)
The work of the association is important because it is donation-funded and supports both parents and advances cancer research. When a child becomes ill, it is sometimes difficult to still have a good, loving family time. I think it's great that the Blue House offers families here a sheltered home for a time.

Gänseblümchen-Voerde e.V.
Due to our own family connections, we ourselves have contact with people affected by this institution. In my youth, I myself had to say goodbye to my best friend with leukaemia when he lost the fight. Therefore, projects that support life with cancer in childhood are a matter close to my heart.

Family hostel Lebensweg
At reer GmbH, we believe that our responsibility goes far beyond the business world and are proud to support the Familienherberge Lebensweg. This organisation does exceptional work by offering families with seriously ill children not only a break from everyday life, but also an environment in which they can draw strength and experience moments together

Outpatient children and youth hospice service Bad Homburg/Taunus
I wish that every child and also family members in difficult life situations feel charity and know: you are not alone.

Björn Steiger Foundation
The costs for a mobile "intensive care unit" for babies and children are enormous, so a donation is always appreciated.

The Ecumenical Hospice Initiative
I find it absolutely impressive and important what volunteers do in this association. They accompany and care for the families during what is probably one of the most tragic and stressful periods of their lives.

Children need to grow up in reliable relationships characterised by trust in order to become strong and independent. Since the Kinderschutzbund supports this with many different offers such as play and learning groups, day groups, play rooms or also separation children, I decided to go to this institution.
