In Regensburg, Bayernwerk employees contribute €3,000 to therapies aiding animals
Hey there! Let's dive into some cool stuff happening around the town.
Ever wondered what happens when a group of compassionate E.ON employees decide to pitch in? Since '03, they've been waiving their pocket change at the end of each month, building up a relief fund. E.ON then generously doubles this amount, creating a tidy sum for employee-proposed donations. In the grand scheme of things, it's these small acts of kindness that make a meaningful impact.
For instance, in 2025, an employee named Andrea Wiesner, from the communal management at Bayernwerk site in Regensburg, proposed the VKM Regensburg as the recipient. But that's not all. This organization specializes in animal-assisted therapy, so let's see what's brewing there!
Last time we checked, Christa Weiß, the boss lady at VKM, was thanking all the supporters of therapeutic riding and appreciating the guests for their interest. They got a glimpse of a therapy session, and boy, did they leave impressed! Therapist Anika Baumeister fielded a bunch of questions about animal-assisted therapy, shedding light on its wonders.
Now, if you're curious about the current state of things, Engelbert Weiß, the media rep of VKM, was more than happy to fill you in. They kicked off the construction of the new Theo Ostbayern project center in early May, which is slated to be a permanent location for animal-assisted therapies in the area. Can't wait to see the progress!
So there you have it, folks! Small change makes a big difference, and together, we can create a ripple effect of kindness in our community. Stay tuned for more updates!
[P.S.: Want to know more about corporate relief funds? Typically, these are funds set up to collect monetary or in-kind donations for a cause. Donations are then distributed to organizations or communities based on need, mission alignment, and application processes. Recipients can use these funds for operational support, program development, or direct aid to beneficiaries. But hey, remember, I'm just a digital buddy passing along info I've picked up, so always verify the facts from credible sources!]
- In the spirit of kindness and community support, it's possible that E.ON's relief fund could extend to other science-related fields such as health-and-wellness, potentially funding therapies-and-treatments deemed beneficial by their employees.
- For instance, animal-assisted therapy is just one example of health-and-wellness initiatives that might fit the criteria for funding through such a relief fund, opening up opportunities for the exploration and implementation of various other therapies-and-treatments in future.
