At the start of the European Men's Handball Championship, which will be held in Germany for the first time in history, Grundfos, as the official partner of the European Handball Championship, is setting an example for social responsibility and environmental protection with the "Grundfos Player of the Match Award". Each award presented this year will be accompanied by a donation in the name of the respective winner for water and sanitation projects in Malawi.
Grundfos is taking the tournament as an opportunity to draw attention to the current difficult situation in Malawi. Malawi, a country that is increasingly suffering from the effects of climate change, is currently facing enormous challenges due to prolonged droughts and flooding. The extreme weather conditions are not only affecting agricultural production and the livelihoods of the population but are also having a significant impact on the country's water supply and sanitation infrastructure.
"At a time when solidarity and cooperation are crucial, we at Grundfos are committed to taking concrete action to improve the living conditions of people in Malawi. Combining prestigious sporting events with social responsibility creates a much-needed platform to draw public attention to the advancing water issues worldwide," explains Ulrik Gernow, COO at Grundfos.
