Charity has always played an important role in Well's core values, since in recent years we have also participated in many projects in which we stood by socially important causes and provided assistance.
This Christmas, we provided help to the residents of a homeless shelters based in Budapest through the Budapest Bike Maffia association. In addition to the financial support, we arrived at the NGO’ HQ with several bags of food and ingredients, and after grabbing a butter knife, the entire Well team enthusiastically threw themselves into preparing sandwiches. A few hours later, we left with dozens of sandwiches, fruit and a good feeling to reach the needy, so that at least on this day they would not only get one main meal, but also dinner.
With the K&H Cooling Groves programme we are establishing refreshing parks in the courtyards of educational institutions across the country. Hungarian schools, kindergartens and nurseries had the opportunity to apply for the plants, and a total of 555 trees and 1110 shrubs will be placed in the yards of 100 selected institutions. The plantation is implemented in cooperation with the 10 Million Trees Foundation. Besides enjoying the beneficial effects of trees, pupils are involved in the plantings so they can learn how to take care of the plants. The initiative is even integrated into the sustainability education program of shools. Our agency was in charge of the conception, the tender process, and the communication towards the press and participants and also the organisation of plantings. We are honored to take part in this programme and create a greener world for children!
