“Taking responsibility and opening perspectives” – under this motto Graphite Materials is committed to associations and social organizations in the region. A good week before Christmas we welcomed Mrs. Heidi Pedain and Mrs. Judith Röhrs from the Fürth Children and Youth Relief Center (KJHZ) in our production. There our CEO Dr.-Ing. Rolf Terjung in front of the assembled workforce a check for 2,000 euros to the representatives of the non-profit organization. In addition, Graphite Materials supports the KJHZ in the coming year with 500 euros per month, for a total of another 6,000 euros. Rolf Terjung emphasized how valuable the work of the KJHZ was. Especially in times of entrepreneurial success, it is also important not to forget those who are less fortunate and in need.
Since 2001, the KJHZ in Fürth has been looking after disadvantaged children, adolescents and young adults who are struggling with different problems. The individual fates that hide behind the people, sad and thoughtful. Without the child and youth welfare center, many of the children left home without breakfast, did not receive a hot meal a day, and did not have their own desk to do their homework. Their parents, who are in financial difficulties, often lack the same things as a washing machine. The staff of the Fürth facility are dedicated and committed to helping. Be it in the framework of social-educational family help, through educational assistance, the vocational integration preparation of young people or a day nursery.
