BASF Stiftung
Donation Campaign #Earthquake2023 for people in Turkey & Syria: Thank you for the high willingness to help!
More than €844,000: This is how much BASF employees donated to BASF Stiftung as part of the aid campaign #Erdbeben2023. BASF will double the amount to more than €1.6 million. Together with the emergency aid of €500,000, BASF and its team will provide more than €2.1 million to support the people in the earthquake region in Turkey and Syria.
What happens with the donations?
While most organizations and donation campaigns focus on immidiate emergency aid, we want to focus on mid-termin support.
We will focus on disaster recovery activities after the first wave of help will slow down.
A donation committee comprising local and global BASF representatives as well as BASF Stiftung will decide on relevant and trusted organizations on the ground that address the biggest needs in the affected region most effectively. Examples could be providing temporary housing, reconstruction of educational and medical facilities or strengthening community, health and psychological support.
We will inform you about the use of the donations!
The fundraising campaign has ended.
It is no longer possible to donate via HRkiosk. Until September 2023, you can still make donations by bank transfer, PayPal and credit card, which will no longer be doubled by BASF.
Please note: Due to PayPal regulations this donation option is not available for some countries, e.g. in Asia, Turkey.
Due to legal regulations, employees from the United Arab Emirates cannot participate in the donation campaign.
We are currently working on another option to donate via credit card.
