Corporate volunteering: We promote education

Many zeb employees volunteer in education during their working hours as part of our corporate volunteering program. Through thek Lern-Fair e.V. network, we help disadvantaged pupils with their homework – free of charge and digitally – and thus make a contribution to greater educational equality.

"I enjoy getting engaged in corporate volunteering and am grateful for this opportunity to provide young people with long-lasting support. I quickly realized how big an impact I could make: the pupil I am tutoring can now solve his tasks better and, as a consequence, has grown fonder of school. 

I also really enjoy chatting with him. We talk about school-related as well as private issues and challenges – and at the end of each tutoring session, the child is usually a lot more motivated and in a much better mood than at the beginning. The time we spend together is beneficial for both of us."
