As the end of the year approaches, so does the time for reflection and presents. Syntegon uses this time to think of people facing challenges in their lives: Together with charitable organizations such as the German Child Protection Association, children's hospices and homes, as well as facilities for people with disabilities and mental illnesses, we conducted a wish tree campaign at 12 locations during the holiday season and have made wishes come true.
Under the slogan “PACKING for a good cause” our colleagues selected wishes submitted by beneficiaries of the various organizations, purchased the gifts, and wrapped them all up. Among them were vouchers for clothing and writing utensils, tickets for amusement parks, hygiene articles for hospices, painting and craft items for children and much more. Currently, colleagues from Alphaville (Brazil), Beringen (Switzerland), Derby (UK), Hangzou (China), Sandved (Denmark), Ternitz (Austria), Crailsheim, Dresden, Königsbrunn, Remshalden, Schopfheim, and Waiblingen (all Germany) hand over in total several hundred gifts to more than ten organizations and associations.
“The wish tree campaign matches our mission “Process and packaging technology for a better life,” emphasizes Patrick Löffel, spokesperson for Syntegon. “After launching the campaign at seven locations 2021, twelve are already participating this year. It is a pleasure to see that so many of our colleagues have committed themselves to helping others – thus contributing to the education, health and participation of people in their region.”
