Social Commitment
As a family business, Vorwerk feels a sense of commitment to special values and engages in social and environmental projects across the world. For this reason, Vorwerk supports several international aid organizations.
SOS CHILDREN’S VILLAGES
As a family business, Vorwerk cares about children and is committed to helping children all around the globe to be able to grow up as part of a caring family. With the Vorwerk Family Fund, Vorwerk raises money for SOS Children’s Villages. The dedicated efforts and contributions of employees, sales partners, the company management and the owner family have so far raised more than 2.1 million euros for the Family Fund. That money has sponsored the construction of a number of family houses in SOS villages in India and Costa Rica and also financed an entire SOS village in Vietnam, where as many as 140 children and their SOS Children’s Villages mothers have found a new home.
Local contributions
Social commitment is a matter of great importance to Vorwerk. The company has strong ties with the locations of its various operations around the world and first and foremost, with Wuppertal, where the Group has its headquarters. That is why Vorwerk supports many local projects, schools and nursery schools with cash and other donations.
