In 2020, TLT-Turbo GmbH in Zweibrücken has again donated EUR 2,500 for good causes. Part of the donation was handed over at Christmas, as we decided to abstain from gifts for business partners and instead donate this amount to various institutions.

A donation of EUR 350 is used to support the Diakonie Pfalz for their health retreat “Jugenddorf” (youth village). Every year, Diakonie Pfalz enables children and young people to take time out during the summer vacations. Unfortunately, in 2020 the camp could not take place due to the Corona pandemic.

The “Kinderschutzbund” (child protection agency) in Zweibrücken was supported with the purchase of a logo placement on their vehicle worth EUR 300. Their vehicle is used, for example, to distribute food to socially disadvantaged families.

A large part of the donation, EUR 600, went to “Sternenkinder” in Homburg.
“Sternenkinder” is a self-help group for families who have lost one or more children before, during or after birth. The donation is used to buy fabrics and sew clothes and wrapping blankets for the deceased children.

The Diakonie Zweibrücken was supported with a donation of EUR 600 for the project “poverty due to Corona”. The Diakonie has set up a Corona relief fund to support people during the Corona crisis. However, this relief fund is very dependent on donations, which is why we wanted to make a special contribution here.

The remaining part of the donation, namely EUR 650 went to the Heinrich Kimmle Foundation Zweibrücken. It is an independent church foundation and supports people with impairments in the areas of work, living and pre-school as well as school education. There, the contribution is used as a transitional allowance to employment for people with disabilities, but also as financial support for obtaining a driver’s license.

TLT-Turbo GmbH, a global ventilation fans and systems manufacturer with their head office located in Zweibruecken and production site in Bad Hersfeld (Germany), today announced the donation of 6000 FFP2 masks (also known as particulate filtering face piece) to help address medical supply shortages in Germany.

The masks were provided as a donation by TLT-Turbo’s parent company, PowerChina. They will be handed over to health officials from TLT-Turbo offices in Bad Hersfeld and Zweibrücken on 23 March 2020 for distribution to hospitals and other first responders facing a shortage of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Our thoughts are with all those affected by the Coronavirus outbreak both locally and across the world. TLT-Turbo has operations located on five continents and so we approach this crisis with a global mindset while also acting locally within our immediate community. As a company and as individuals, we recognize the need to support the medical community to help safeguard the health and safety of German citizens during the Coronavirus crisis. We are privileged to assist with this donation that will help ease the burden of healthcare workers and medical personnel,” said TLT-Turbo Global Co-Managing Director, Mr. Rainer Redinger.

TLT-Turbo Global Co-Managing Director, Mr. Xiongfei Zhao commented that TLT-Turbo is grateful for the support of their parent company, PowerChina. “PowerChina and TLT-Turbo have always had a relationship based on mutual support and cooperation. In this time of need, our relationship allows us to respond to the challenge facing our colleagues in Germany. We are grateful for the role that PowerChina has played in allowing TLT-Turbo to make a meaningful contribution to the fight against COVID-19 in Germany.”

The health and well-being of TLT-Turbo employees, their families and all German citizens remains a top priority for the company.
