The VIAOPTIC Christmas donation 2023

20.12.2023

Once again this year, we decided to make a donation to two charitable organisations instead of giving gifts.

We were able to transfer EUR 1,000.00 each to TAFEL Wetzlar and the EinDollarBrille association and are delighted to be able to make a contribution to helping people affected by poverty in the Central Hesse region and in some of the poorest countries in the world.

Die TAFEL e.V.
Despite still being perfectly edible, tons of food are destroyed in Germany every day. At the same time, there are millions of people in this country who do not have enough to eat. The Tafel are working on bridging this gap between excess on the one hand and lack on the other. They collect qualitatively good food that would otherwise land in the garbage and distribute it for free or a symbolic amount to socially and economically disadvantaged people. There are currently more than 970 Tafel in Germany. All of them are nonprofit organizations. The Tafel support 1.6 to 2 million people in need of food throughout the country – nearly one third of them are children and youth.

We would like to thank all associations, organisations and volunteers for their commitment, which deserves great respect.
They work voluntarily and often unpaid for the common good. We also have many employees in our ranks who are involved in civil defence and disaster control organisations in their private time. Thank you for your commitment!

We would also like to thank our customers and business partners for the trust they have placed in us this year and look forward to further successful projects in the coming year 2024.
