"We particularly focus these donations on supporting institutions, initiatives, and projects in need as a result of the corona pandemic. This is part of our social responsibility," says Dr. Andreas Kreimeyer, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of K+S Aktiengesellschaft.
A total of 242,000 euros will be donated to institutions such as children's hospices, food banks and healthcare organizations in Germany. A further 88,000 euros will be given to aid organizations with similar purposes at K+S sites in France, Canada, the United States of America, Chile and Brazil.
During the three-week selection process, all K+S employees could nominate charitable or cultural initiatives, institutions, projects and organizations at their sites which have been disproportionally affected by the negative impact of the corona pandemic.
