“Nurture the Future” in China

Sponsored by Hanns Voith Foundation, Voith China launched the “Nurture the Future” campaign.

This project traced its roots back to 2021, when Voith employee’s children participated in a volunteer teaching program at Xinjie Primary School, establishing a strong connection with the students. After learning that the students at this remote school were in need of books, Voith China decided to launch a book donation campaign named "Nurture the Future."

In early 2022, employees from across Voith China united to donate and purchase over 1,100 books, further enriching the students’ educational opportunities.

Ahead of Thanksgiving 2024, Voith China encouraged employees to donate unused books again, with approximately 300 books collected. Many employees also wrote heartfelt messages on cards to inspire and encourage the students.

As part of the campaign, Voith employees were also invited to join a winter sports challenge. Their active participation was transformed into donations of footballs and badminton rackets for the school. This initiative not only supported the school’s sports programs but also emphasized the importance of maintaining physical and mental health.

The Principal of Xinjie Elementary School sent a letter of thanks on behalf of the school as soon as the books were received, expressing his heartfelt thanks to the company and employees for their acts of kindness.

More than 1,100 books were collected in total, including new purchases and donations from employees.
