The organisation of the tombola was in the hands of the trainees, who were also allowed to choose the purpose of the donation. They chose the “Radio 7 Drachenkinder“ to support children and young people in need in the region.
Important support
"We are very pleased that the trainees of Georg Schlegel GmbH & Co. KG in Dürmentingen have decided to donate the proceeds from the Christmas tombola to the “Radio 7 Drachenkinder“. Without generous donations, our important support for sick, handicapped and traumatised children and young people in broadcast area of Radio 7 would not be possible," explains Andrea Lang-Merkle from “Radio 7 Drachenkinder“.
Radio 7 Drachenkinder is one of the most successful charity organszations in Baden-Württemberg. The donations are used exclusively in the broadcasting area, and an independent committee decides on their use in accordance with the Drachenkinder statutes. Since its foundation in 2005, more than 10,000 families and institutions have been supported with more than 13 million euros.
Promoting local projects
"Our employees are rooted in the region, so it's important to us to support local projects," emphasise the SCHLEGEL managing directors Christoph Schlegel and Wolfgang Weber.
Georg Schlegel GmbH & Co. KG, a leading manufacturer of pushbuttons and switches for controlling machines and systems, has been involved in social projects for years and regularly supports associations, organisations, and institutions in the region.
