PM-International donates €1,872,000 to charity sponsoring 5,200 children around the world |
|
Schengen, 31 January, 2023 (APA/OTS) - PM-International is thrilled to announce that its charity arm known as "PM We Care" is pushing the boundaries for 2023 by donating €1,872,000, the most it has ever given, to support the health, education and a good environment for thousands of children in partnership with the international aid organisation World Vision. |
The company has a firm long-term charity donation commitment, and
with World Vision over the past two years has sponsored 4,200
children around the world to the tune of €5.7 million. A further
1,000 children will be sponsored from next year, bringing the total
to 5,200.
Looking back just over the past three years PM-International has
donated no less than €7,572,000 around the world for emergency
relief including to Ukraine and for Covid-19 related aid, on top of
the child sponsorships with World Vision.
Charity Ambassador at PM-International Vicki Sorg stated, "giving a
future to 5,200 sponsored children is incredible and this brings us
to just over half of our long-term goal of 10,000 sponsored
children! This is super exciting! This stands for commitment,
leadership, and that not only are we as a company focused on our
core competence of premium products for health, fitness and beauty,
but penetrating our values. We focus on the good in people and on
every level of business to make the world just a little bit better
each day. As I always say, we are PM".
Indeed, as producers of the FitLine range of products
PM-International states that every time a FitLine product is sold,
the company gives an 'hour of life' to children, bringing them
better chances of growing up without hunger, poverty and fear.
PM We Care doesn't simply donate to World Vision though, it
actively supports and visits the children and their communities,
even in remote rural areas. In 2022 Zimbabwe was the focus and PM We
Care representatives spent time in villages in the country to follow
the progress of their programme. In 2023 the focus will be on
regions in Tanzania and Kenya where visits are also planned.
It is estimated that sponsoring one child actually benefits five
children. Senior Advisor Philanthropy at World Vision Germany,
Juliana Goessmann, explained how this is worked out. "As we improve
the situation of children through their families and neighbourhoods,
everyone in the community can benefit: whether we use the funds for
schools and learning materials, water systems or livelihoods. We
could see in Zimbabwe how access to clean water supports education
and good nutrition and therefore changes people's lives".
What this means is that 4,200 sponsored children can be considered
as ambassadors for roughly 21,000 children and if families and
communities are also taken into consideration then it is estimated
that 500,000 people benefit indirectly. With the additional 1000
sponsored children in 2023, PM We Care will have an even larger
impact.
At the PM-International Leadership Convention in Berlin recently,
the CEO of World Vision Christoph Waffenschmidt stated: "Our
long-term partnership with PM-International is unique and we feel so
encouraged and inspired to see how you stand firm to your commitment
and to your legacy. Leadership is about taking responsibility which
doesn't end with your own business but stretches further. The world
has promised to leave no child behind in development and we are the
ones who can put this promise into reality."
In 2023, the charity engagement of PM-International in partnership
with World Vision celebrates its 20th anniversary. Since it began
supporting children, their families and communities through World
Vision, more than 60 long-term development projects all around the
world have received reliable funding. Now with 5200 sponsored
children worldwide, PM-International is the largest corporate
sponsor for World Vision's humanitarian, relief and development work
that is a leader within the sector.
