Etengo helps
by helping.
For butterfly children
People affected by epidermolysis bullosa (EB) have skin that is as fragile as a butterfly's wing from birth. They are therefore referred to as butterfly children. Even the slightest pressure or friction causes blisters and painful wounds to form, as a congenital gene mutation means that the connection between the different layers of skin is insufficiently developed. Butterfly disease is currently incurable and causes massive restrictions for those affected throughout their lives. Etengo is supporting the interest group Epidermolysis Bullosa e. V. DEBRA Germany with €10,000 to help butterfly children and their families.
The people in Ukraine.
In order to help ease the suffering of the people of Ukraine, Etengo has donated €100,000 to the Deutschland Hilft campaign to provide emergency medical aid, water, food and hygiene packages.
For a better climate. For cleaner air.
Christmas is the season of goodwill. In 2021, Etengo’s focus was on goodwill towards the environment. We wanted to give something back to nature, which is why we put more than 500 living trees ‘under the Christmas tree’ for the festive season. In the heart of Germany, a mixed forest of Scots elm, sycamore and silver fir is taking shape, every day contributing more and more to protecting the climate and the soil, and preventing flooding, not to mention filtering water and fine particulates. It will become a biodiverse habitat that contributes to reducing CO2.
For rapid assistance in the earthquake zone
To help local aid workers alleviate the suffering of those affected by the earthquake in Turkey and Syria, Etengo has donated €20,000 to Aktion Deutschland Hilft for urgently needed humanitarian aid, on behalf of all its employees.
For a smile on a child’s face.
Real joy for the little ones. Etengo regularly donates gummy bears to the Ludwigshafen child protection agency, children’s homes in Mannheim, the railway mission and other charities. Why gummy bears? Because kids and customers love them!
For a new home
Fast help when it is really needed. When the Ahr valley flooded, Etengo immediately donated to help the Deutschland Hilft rescue network. This brought quick assistance to those in need and helped ease their suffering just a little.
For a second chance
When the weakest in society are affected, the stronger ones have to take over. In this case, Etengo employees raised more than €600 for German children’s cancer charities. Etengo rounded up the donation to €1,000.
For increased diversity.
Etengo was not just there, we had our own float right in the middle of the CSD Rhein-Neckar 2022 parade in Mannheim. The awnings on the Etengo truck could not be used again, but they could be repurposed. We gave them a come-back of their own, making them into customised bags with the help of Lebenshilfe e.V. Every bag is unique. Every one is different. So they are just as diverse as we are. Etengo employees donated money for their own personal favourites, all in line with the motto of CSD 2022 ‘#FreeUkraine’ supporting queer emergency aid to Ukraine.
For young soccer players with disabilities.
Etengo supports the young disabled soccer players of Grün-Weiß Brauweiler with an annual donation to help ensure that these young boys and girls can play soccer with passion despite their physical or mental disabilities... and that the inclusive team has everything it needs to leave the field as winners.
