Round down for a good cause

No one wants to be in hospital, and particularly for children and their parents, the time spent there is especially difficult. Together with the Association of Friends [Förderkreis] of the Aschaffenburg Children’s Clinic, SAF-HOLLAND seeks to make hospitalisation as pleasant as possible for the little patients and their parents.

How does this work? It can be accomplished with as little as a few cents each month. Because with this long-term fund-raising campaign, the small change after the decimal point in SAF-HOLLAND employees’ net monthly salaries adds up. This way, each month every employee can donate up to 99 cents to a good cause. And the best part: the money is forwarded, utterly unbureaucratically, to its intended destination: to sick children and their parents. ‘The direct solidarity shown by SAF-HOLLAND colleagues was tremendous’, says Katja Maier, Human Resources Manager at SAF-HOLLAND. ‘Already in the first month, many of our colleagues agreed to participate in the campaign – and the upward trend continues.’
