Michelin donates 10,000 euros for children's cancer treatment in Karlsruhe!

Karlsruhe, Deutschland - an impressive sign of Michelin's solidarity! The well -known tire manufacturer, which has been rooted in Karlsruhe since 1931, recently provided a generous donation of 10,000 euros to the support association to support the oncological department of the Karlsruhe children's clinic (Fuokk). This sum comes from various actions by the company and the committed employees and shows the committed heart of Michelin for the region!

"We are very grateful for this donation," said Admira Knoll, the chairwoman of the association, at the moving handover in the center for children and women at the Karlsruhe Städtische Clinic. The donation will flow into an important project that provides for the financing of a part -time job for the psychological accompaniment of sick children, their parents and siblings in the oncological department. An indispensable step, because in the case of cancer, in addition to medical treatment, psychological support is also crucial!

Competent care for sick children

The S24 rainbow station, specializing in hematological and oncological diseases in children and adolescents, houses an average of 30 new diagnoses per year and is one of the largest non-university pediatric-oncological centers in Germany. There are 16 stationary and four day -clinic beds available here, where the little patients are lovingly looked after. Christian Metzger, director of the location and work of Michelin Karlsruhe, sums it up: "It is very important to us to support the important work of the treatment teams." The attention for the psychological aspect during the often long -lasting treatment period for cancer is an important topic that is clearly in focus through this donation.
