For our company’s pleasure we received during the meeting at company Kaeser, Coburg in June a certificate for the outperform of the strived goals. The certificate has been received by our responsible electrically qualified person, Mr. Ulrich Tröger.

From the “E.ON Energy Efficiency-Network“ companies benefit in many aspects. They are guided technicalwise by moderation and qualified energy consultancy and are in a moderated and systematic exchange with the other companies within the network.

Gesellschafterspende 2023 für einen guten Zweck

Ende des Jahres 2022 erreichte uns ein Brief des Vereins Hilfe für Frauen in Not e.V. und weckte unser Interesse daran, das AWO Frauenhaus Hochfranken in Selb zu unterstützen. Das AWO-Frauenhaus verfügt über sieben Zimmer und diverse Gemeinschaftsräume (Küche, Wohnraum) sowie drei Bäder. Die Frauen im Alter zwischen 18 und 70 Jahren sind meist Opfer von häuslicher Gewalt und Stalking. Teilweise halten sich bis zu 16 Kinder mit im Haus auf. Gerade diese leiden besonders unter der Situation, müssen sie doch ihr gewohntes Umfeld, Schule und Freunde verlassen. Vielen Frauen konnte schon dabei geholfen werden, zur Ruhe zu kommen und sich eine neue Zukunft aufzubauen.

Die Gesellschafter unseres Unternehmens wählen jährlich einen guten Zweck für ihre Spende und im März wurde diese übergeben.

Entgegengenommen wurde diese von Tanja Lang, 1. Vorsitzende Hilfe für Frauen in Not e.V. – hier im Bild mit Geschäftsführer Willi Josef Ferfers und unserer Betriebsratsvorsitzenden, Nadine Anger.
