Nagel-Group supports social projects with honey donation campaign 2025
Nagel-Group has organised its honey donation campaign for the fourth time in a row, once again setting an example for social commitment. The company has established nine bee colonies at its own locations over the past few years, and the honey produced from these generated proceeds of around €5,500 for the 2025 campaign.
Nagel-Group bees produced around 540 jars of honey. Employees at the sites were able to purchase the honey in return for a donation. Under the campaign headline “Donate once – help twice”, the money collected by the individual branches was matched euro for euro by the company.
“ We are delighted to not only make a contribution to actively support regional initiatives. It is very important to us that our employees make the decision on where the donations go,” says Dr Holger Werthschulte, CFO of Nagel-Group.
Employees decide on donation recipients
The donations benefit regional initiatives selected by the employees at the respective locations. The following organisations benefited from the campaign this year:
Eschweiler: Haus St. Josef gGmbH
Hella Königsmann, branch manager at the Eschweiler site, handed over a donation cheque for €600 to Robert Wagner, managing director of Haus St. Josef gGmbH, child, youth and family services.
Schweitenkirchen: Kindergarten St. Johannes Schweitenkirchen
The St. Johannes kindergarten was delighted to receive a donation cheque from the Schweitenkirchen site and a big crowd of our “Paletto” Nagel teddies.
Versmold (Headquarters): CJD Child, Youth and Family Services Versmold
The CJD child, youth and family welfare organisation in Versmold was overjoyed to receive €610. “On behalf of the CJD, I would like to thank Nagel-Group for this fantastic campaign. We will use the donation to redesign our garden and create a meeting place for the children and young people surrounded by nature,” says Anika Schüler, Head of the CJD Versmold – Child, Youth and Family Services.
Borgholzhausen. PAB-Gesamtschule comprehensive school Borgholzhausen
The Borgholzhausen branch is once again making a donation to the PAB-Gesamtschule comprehensive school support organisation in Borgholzhausen. “The PAB-Gesamtschule comprehensive school has been our cooperation partner for many years, so it was important to us to put our backing behind the support association with a donation again this year,” says Christian Nollmann, Commercial Director of Nagel-Group Borgholzhausen.
