A total of 22 charitable institutions throughout Germany will receive financial support from ICMIF member R+V Versicherung, as the company raised a record EUR 181,700 in its annual Christmas fundraising campaign.

Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine, inflation, exploding energy prices: the effects of the major crises this year also hit and are still hitting many charitable institutions. In this year’s traditional R+V Christmas fundraising campaign, the focus was placed on the “Tafeln” (food banks) among the institutions covered, as they are particularly challenged by the increased number of refugees, inflation and the rise in people in need. An record amount of EUR 181,700  was reached in the 2022 fundraising (in the previous year’s Christmas fundraising campaign EUR 136,000 was raised).
