Social commitment
We are committed to social projects on both a local and an international level.
As a family-friendly company, we are particularly passionate about providing support for children and young people.
Sponsored run of the elementary school at Pfanzeltplatz: "Children for children".
At the sponsored run "Kinder für Kinder" (Children for Children) of the Munich elementary school am Pfanzeltplatz on May 4, 2016, children from 12 classes ran for one hour on the lawn of their school. Projektron sponsored every lap run by a first-grader, who achieved a top result of 13 laps (5.2 km). The proceeds will go to the school's booster club, which will cover the cost of a visit to the Residenztheater in Munich. All 270 students can look forward to this visit to the theater. The Residenztheater offers the children the opportunity to gain an insight into the world of theater, either as spectators or by trying out and experimenting on their own.
Chikara: New uniforms for young Taekwondoins
The light, white-bleached sports uniforms for Taekwondo are called Doboks. Projektron supported the Taekwondo youth of the Sportschule Chikara e.V. sports academy in Berlin-Kreuzberg in 2012. This is the second project, after providing jerseys to the youth soccer players in Aislingen, with which Projektron supports youth sports in the vicinity of their location.
Sponsorship run of the Wald-Grundschule elementary school: Students run for sports equipment
The sponsorship run of the Wald-Grundschule on October 6, 2014, was both about and around the gym: the route of the small runners led around the school's gym and the proceeds will be used for it as well. The goal of the event was to raise funds for new sports equipment for the gym with every lap run. Projektron sponsored the run of a second-grade student of the school, who achieved a top result of 19 laps (7.6 km). Around 500 students participated in the run. With the new equipment, the students of the school can finally do sports in their own gym after more than one year.
Freie Turnerschaft Geestemünde: Jersey bags for the youngest
Every year shortly before the summer vacation, the soccer division of the Freie Turnerschaft Geestemünde Bremerhaven sports club hosts a big tournament for youth teams. More than 90 teams from all over Northern Germany participated in the 2014 anniversary tournament in six age groups. To support their athletic commitment, the team averaging the youngest in each age group was given a Projektron sports bag. Projektron already sponsored the tournaments in 2013 by providing sweatshirts for the respective oldest coach of each age group and in 2012 by providing coolers for the five teams who had traveled the farthest.
Europe school: Teaching material for “las clases de español”
Cross-cultural education and bilingual classes are a top priority in the Hausburgschule in Berlin-Friedrichshain. First-grade students from about 30 nations learn together – in Spanish and German. At the beginning of the school year 2012/2013, Projektron supported the multicultural elementary school with teaching materials compiled by the teacher specifically for her fourth-grade Spanish classes.

Initiative Flip4Kids: For kids in the neighborhood
Flip4Kids is an initiative that was developed by a group of independent coaches and advisors. Every year they select a social project which they support financially. For example the Reppinichen Osterreise (Easter trip to Reppinichen) that makes vacation in the country side possible for children, even when their families do not have the financial resources for such a trip. Projektron has been supporting this initiative since 2010.
Long table: Everyone at one table
No matter where you come from - no matter how old: Year after year, Kreuzberg schoolchildren serve spaghetti to all those who take a seat at the 200-meter-long table on Bergmannstraße. Eating together brings young and old together in the Kreuzberg neighborhood and contributes to intergenerational exchange. Projektron supported this art project from 2007 to 2008.
BEAK: Volunteer work for daycare centers (Kitas)
Families in the Kreuzberg neighborhood are supported by Projektron in a very special way. The Projektron web specialists programmed the Internet presence of the district's parent association for daycare center and took care of its maintenance until 2012.
SV Aislingen : Nouveaux maillots pour les jeunes footballeurs
Avec de nouveaux maillots pour les E-jeunes de l'équipe de la ligue du district bavarois SV Aislingen, Projektron s'est engagé pour la première fois en 2011 auprès des jeunes des environs du site de Projektron à Munich. En particulier, les aspects sociaux du sport pour les jeunes, tels que l'esprit d'équipe et le développement des compétences, ont motivé Projektron à s'engager auprès des jeunes du football.
St. Monica Girls School Ghana: hardware for school computers
In 2010, one of our employees worked as a teacher at the St. Monica Girls School in Cape Coast, Ghana during a sabbatical. St. Monica is one of the few public schools in Ghana that provides a computer room to its pupils. We are happy that we could make a contribution to the improvement of the learning conditions. The necessary printers and hardware for networking were procured and installed on site.
