The war in Ukraine is causing inconceivable suffering to the people. Children and families are particularly hard hit by the attacks. For this reason, the Vaillant Group held a fundraising campaign through which all employees were able to support the humanitarian aid of our long-standing partner "SOS Children's Villages worldwide".
255,000 euros for children and families in Ukraine
The employees of the Vaillant Group donated a clear six-digit amount by the end of the fundraising campaign, which the company has topped up. Overall, the Vaillant Group can thus hand over 255,000 euros to SOS Children's Villages, which provides a broad programme of aid for children and families in Ukraine. The overwhelming willingness to help within the Vaillant Group shows that the success of the Vaillant team can not only be measured in business figures.
