“Our thoughts are with the victims, with their
families, with all those affected,” said Roland Busch, President and CEO of
Siemens AG. “We want to help. And – together with Siemens Healthineers – we are
making €1 million available as immediate assistance. Siemens Caring Hands,
our charitable organization, will
provide quick and unbureaucratic help.”
Through the
non-profit organization Siemens Caring Hands e.V., donations are made available
to selected relief organizations. These organizations then use the money to
provide local aid measures in response to disasters. Measures range from tents,
accommodations and technical support to food, drinking water and basic medical
care.
The earthquake disaster neither injured people employed by Siemens and
Siemens Healthineers nor damaged the companies’ facilities. Siemens AG employs
around 70 people in Morocco, Siemens Healthineers 110 people.
