Tradition is not about preserving the ashes, but about passing on the flame.
The people and the region in and around Wuppertal are very important to us. The tradition at BOBOTEX® has therefore always been one of social commitment and making a contribution to society.
The snow leopard is a critically endangered species. Wuppertal Zoo is participating in the breeding programme for these animals, which originate from Central Asia, and built a larger enclosure for them in 2016/2017. The enclosure was planted with a large birch forest around it, which we helped finance with our tree sponsorship for 15 birch trees.
The Burgholz Children's and Youth Hospice supports and guides families from day one of a life-shortening diagnosis. The hospice offers relief for families, moments of happiness and also the time and space to say goodbye. We have been supporting this important work since 2017 with an annual donation.
The steady rise in food prices is causing problems for increasing numbers of people. At the same time, tons of food that is still perfectly edible is destroyed every year. The food banks save around 265,000 tonnes of food annually across Germany and distribute it to 1.6 to 2 million people. We have been supporting the Wuppertal Food Bank since 2017 with annual donations of goods and money.
The Wuppertal Stages, with their theatre, symphony orchestra, opera and Pina Bausch Dance Theatre, are an important part of Wuppertal's cultural landscape. The ensembles not only perform at their venues, but often also outside them. We have joined forces with other local companies in Wuppertal to fund a small van to transport stage décor, costumes, etc., which is available for these trips.
TV Beyeröhde 1893 e. V. is a popular sports club based in Wuppertal with an extremely successful women’s handball team. We have been supporting the Beyeröhder Handballgirls since 2013 with an annual financial contribution towards their match budget.
At least one in four children in Wuppertal lives in a family at or below the poverty line. Kindertal e.V. is a registered non-profit organisation that has been committed to helping these children for 20 years. Whether through individual applications or by promoting joint projects run by social organisations. Kindertal e. V. does not pay cash to families. Kindertal cooperates with companies in Wuppertal via voucher systems for clothing, shoes and furniture. Any donations received are given to the association with no deductions applied, which means that every Euro donated is given to children in need. We have been donating money regularly to support this commitment since 2011 to ensure the children affected have a better life.
Childhood dementia NCL is a metabolic disorder of which very little is understood even today. It is incurable, progresses inexorably and leads to early death. Affected children go blind, suffer from epilepsy and progressively lose their cognitive and motor skills until they die, usually before the age of 30. The NCL Foundation is committed to promoting national and international research to give children affected by NCL the prospect of previously unavailable treatment and cure options. We became aware of the foundation in 2022 thanks to the "Ein Herz für Kinder" (A Heart for Children) programme. The topic of a future without childhood dementia is a very moving one for us. We have therefore been supporting the foundation with our donation since 2022, for example to co-finance a research project in Germany and the general work of the NCL.
TSV Union Wuppertal is committed to promoting young talent in girls' soccer. We are supporting this commitment in 2025 with a set of training jerseys for the U11 girls' team.
