Donations instead of gifts at ASYS
Due to Corona, unfortunately, a personal meeting of the management with the representatives of the organizations could not take place this year. Klaus Mang, Managing Director of the ASYS Group, is grateful that they were able to talk virtually: "Personal exchange is really close to our hearts. It is important to us to look behind the scenes of the work of these organizations and to express our appreciation for this in person. So we're glad we were able to realize a virtual meeting this year to exchange thoughts."
In 2005, instead of investing in expensive Christmas gifts for customers, ASYS decided to donate funds to social organizations. Since then, regional or national projects have been selected and supported every year.

The 120 volunteers and 48 full-time employees provide individual care for the dying and mourners and enable dying people to live with dignity until the end. Integrated in the house is an academy, which informs affected families comprehensively about the topic of death anddying. Not only patients, but also bereaved families find a contact point here. www.hospiz-ulm.de
Der Förderkreis
Der Förderkreis für tumor- und leukämiekranke Kinder in Ulm supports families whose children have leukemias and tumors. During the protracted therapy of the children, which can often take months, the families are burdened both emotionally and socially. This is where the Förderkreis helpers, mostly former patients, take care of them and, for example, fulfill the heartfelt wishes of children with the disease. They also support cancer research and help families with administrative and social matters. www.foerderkreis-ulm.org
