Every year, the employees of Kyäni are encouraged to act for people in need as part of the Kyäni Caring Hands Day. In 2021, they choose different organizations that they can help by making a donation.
David Atlan, Country Manager France & Benelux, has the children’s welfare at heart so he chose the organization Ecole Hatikva – Association „Comme les autres”.
The school, located in Lyon-Villeurbanne in the Auvergne Rhône Alpes region, welcomes children that have special needs, like trisomy 21, mild autism, or handicap. Hatikva helps these children with their education to help them build their future. The organization does so by giving all the necessary attention with great kindness to each individual child. Hatikva is also one of the first schools in France to equip all its rooms with ‘pedagogical flexibility’ furniture.
What is the goal of the donation? According to David Atlan Country Manager, we owe it to ourselves to show and to be in solidarity with people living with special needs. Solidarity in this civilization of solitude is not only necessary but indispensable.
The cash donation made by Kyäni will help the school with …
… THE PURCHASE OF OUTDOOR LEISURE EQUIPMENT
Supporting the purchase of outdoor furniture to promote moments of relaxation and play for children.
… THE FURNITURE FOR DAY STAY
The association needs flexible and ergonomic furniture for the development of their teenagers and adults.
