One day, 15 projects, 2,000 participants: In the beginning of June, DKV Mobility employees in Ratingen exchanged their desks and keyboards for rubbish grabbers, paintbrushes and football boots. Instead of a normal working day, they got involved in various charitable activities.

Living up to the motto "For a sustainable and colourful Ratingen", DKV Mobility organised it’s very first "DKV Mobility Community Day". The day is part of the company’s civic commitment, which, in addition to donations, sponsoring and foundation activities also includes the promotion of voluntary charitable work by employees As a Ratingen-based company, DKV Mobility wants to give something back to the local community and show that it is an active member of the neighbourhood.

The projects were ranging from a Read Aloud festival with children from different nations, an outing with residents of a retirement home, DIY projects with children, gardening, production of a fitness video for truckers, a visit hauler visit with school graduates to learn more about careers in logistics, graffiti removal, clean-up work, a football project with an inclusion team and much more.
