ECKART donates to support group for children with cancer

Hartenstein, 23.02.2023 - Donations instead of gifts: for several years now, ECKART has been foregoing customer gifts and using the money to support non-profit or charitable associations with a donation. 
With the 2022 Christmas donation of €10,000, the effect pigment manufacturer gave to the Selbsthilfegruppe krebskranker Kinder Amberg-Sulzbach e.V. (support group for children with cancer).

The support group, which was founded in 2003 and is organized on a voluntary basis, supports children with cancer in the region and their relatives through a wide range of measures. It sees itself as a representative of interests and an advocate for the families affected.

Chairwoman Petra Waldhauser and her team are currently looking after 18 cases. Her goal is to improve the living situation of those affected. The association also organizes typings and thus supports the DKMS, the German Bone Marrow Donor Center.

Managing Director Sabine Rupp and Wolfgang Rothenaicher, Head of Global Procurement at ECKART, thanked Ms. Waldhauser for her commitment. "The fact that the association works on a voluntary basis means that every cent reaches those affected. An extraordinary achievement that we highly appreciate," said Rupp.
