Social projects

Materna is continuously dedicated to supporting projects in the fields of education and sport, for socially and economically disadvantaged social groups and in the promotion of children and young people through our involvement in various initiatives. A central point of our activities is the annual Christmas donation. This donation goes to non-profit organisations and associations that are particularly important to our employees and in which they are actively involved. We also support local organisations and aid projects at all our locations throughout the country in order to make a contribution to regional support.
