Commerzbank donates 200,000 euros to brotZeit e.V.
Commerzbank supports a non-profit association that provides needy pupils at primary and secondary schools with a balanced breakfast.
In addition, the bank calls on employees, customers and business partners to make joint donations.
Commerzbank again decides to donate to a social project instead of Christmas advertising production.
Commerzbank has launched a donation campaign as part of its Christmas campaign 2023 for the nationwide active association brotZeit e.V. in addition to the bank donation of 200,000 euros. Since the end of November, employees can donate to the association, starting from 12. In December, the bank also calls on customers and business partners to do so. Already in the first days after the start of the campaign, around 20,000 euros came together from the bank's staff to donate.
"Commerzbank is mobilising its customers, business partners and employees for a good cause again this year. Christmas is the time to make a difference together," says Commerzbank CEO Manfred Knof on the occasion of the fundraiser for brotZeit e.V.
brotZeit e.V. was founded at the beginning of 2009 by the actress Uschi Glas. Today's Chairman of the Supervisory Board is very pleased with the initiative: "We are very grateful for the generous donation of Commerzbank and its employees. This fundraiser will hopefully help us achieve our goal for 2025. Because we want to provide 600-schools nationwide with breakfast by then. "
Every fifth child goes to school without breakfast
Hunger and food poverty have serious consequences – especially for children: difficulty concentrating, fatigue and aggression make everyday life more difficult for them and cause unequal opportunities in education and social interaction compared to children who are adequately cared for from home. brotZeit e.V. has taken care of this maladministration and is now active in 21-funding regions with 360-degree primary and advanced schools. There, a total of 2,000 volunteer breakfast helpers prepare a balanced breakfast for school children in need every day before the start of classes. They are also beloved contacts and thus enable them to start their school day well.
