Sometimes, you just have to be slightly spontaneous and provide a helping hand to those who need it the most right now. Due to the flooding in many parts of Germany and the immense damage that it has caused, with many families losing their homes, we have decided to help out in a practical way.
We have postponed the current prize draw that forms part of our personnel development program at our Mönchengladbach, Braunschweig and Gotha sites to the next quarter. Instead, a total of EUR 7,500 will be donated to flood victims in the states of North Rhine-Westphalia and Rhineland-Palatinate: Through the Lichtblicke initiative, which has been offering help to families with children for more than 20 years, we are supporting families affected by the flooding in particular. For further information, please visit www.lichtblicke.de/unwetter-hilfe.
We have also donated numerous crates of Original OeTTINGER soft drinks, such as Fassbrausen and Limo, through various private initiatives. Of course, we have also donated mineral water, which ordinarily we do not make available for sale. Instead, it tends to be reserved for our employees as a by-product of our production process.
