SOFTSWISS joins efforts to help Polish food victims

Strengthening its charity work, SOFTSWISS has provided financial support to victims of the recent floods in Southern Poland.

The company partnered with Polish charity Wielka Orkiestra Świątecznej Pomocy after a dozen towns were evacuated due to floods caused by Storm Boris in September. It follows a similar campaign for victims in flood-hit regions in Brazil. 

The provider will also make use of its two development offices based in Poland, with SOFTSWISS employees helping to pack boxes of over 100kg of essential items, such as food, hygiene products, matches, candles and batteries. 

These items were then delivered to Caritas Polska, another charitable organisation focussed on relief efforts in flood-hit areas. 

“Unfortunately, natural disasters happen, and we don’t want to stand idly by. We strive to help in any way we can,” said Natalia Perkowska, Deputy Chief HR Officer at SOFTSWISS.

“This aligns with one of our core values, We See People, which applies not only to our employees. We always see the people beyond the business, and I believe our ESG initiatives reflect this.”

Reaching out to help flood victims in Poland and Brazil forms part of SOFTSWISS’ global ESG strategy. This strategy has also seen the company take part in fundraising initiatives such as World Environment Day, Pink October and Movember.
