LG Energy Solution Wroclaw: Noble Gift Program
Led by the WIOSNA (meaning “Spring” in Polish) Association, the heartwarming Noble Gift program is one of Poland’s largest charity initiatives and aims to support families in need, especially during the holiday season. In collaboration with various like-minded institutions, volunteers pack donated goods and deliver them to families. In the 23rd edition of Noble Gift last year, over 12,000 volunteers participated across Poland helping distribute Noble Gift parcels.
LG Energy Solution Wroclaw has been part of the Noble Gift program for five years in a row. During in-house charity fairs last year, employees contributed homemade treats and handmade items, adding a personal touch to their support. In all, the company collected food, cleaning supplies, clothing and shoes, valued at more than PLN 75,000 (USD 18,890) – enough to help 12 families. Moreover, every effort was made to ensure that each kit would meet the diverse needs of family.
