At Elvinger Hoss Prussen we are committed to our corporate social responsibility programme and actively encourage our team to engage in charitable campaigns and activities which we organise throughout the year.

As part of this commitment we held a sale under the banner of “Traditions to Share” together with and for the benefit of two of our CSR-partners, Friendship and the Luxembourg Red Cross.

Driven by the local Luxembourg City section of the Red Cross, “Traditions to Share” stands for a variety of initiatives, based on traditional handicrafts, customs and social aspects, which aim to share traditions for the greater good.

The items on sale were a mix of carefully selected high quality goods crafted in their original traditions and sustainable methods such as olive oil, parmesan cheese and handmade soaps, to name but a few. In addition to these we also sold products made in “Friendship’s” workshops in Bangladesh and, last but not least, items and gifts created by hand by our in-house volunteer group L’Atelier.

L’Atelier volunteers meet during their lunch break or after work to create handmade objects such as needlework projects or jams. Through these activities, L’Atelier also serves as an opportunity to forge a bond between colleagues and to (re-)learn the basics of traditional home-made products.
