In 2009, Ventura Aid was created with the idea of highlighting Ventura Systems' social commitment. Not only a company where innovative door systems are made, but also a company where the proceeds are used to give something back to society. This is done for and by employees. This year, we were allowed to support no less than 50 charities! We explain in this article exactly how this works.
What does Ventura Aid do?
Annual donation
Each employee may nominate a charity annually for a donation of €250.
Long-term projects
At home and abroad, we support long-running projects to make a difference.
Local impact
Locally, we support associations and initiatives. Structurally or incidentally.
Increase visibility
We increase visibility and knowledge about various charities among our employees.
the team
Ventura Aid's mission and vision is carried out by a team of employees and family members of shareholders. Together, they select projects, approve charity applications from employees and help promote Ventura Aid. Inside and outside the company. Together, the team wants to maximise the impact they can have, but feeling good is also important. After all, those who share can multiply.
charities sponsored by employees
One of Ventura Aid's objectives is to give charities more visibility and increase employee engagement. We do this by communicating internally about the supported charities and sharing their stories. In this way, we hope not only to raise awareness of these initiatives, but also to inspire employees and raise awareness of important social issues.
Below is an overview of some of the causes we were privileged to support in 2024.
what does Aid mean to you?
We hope that through Ventura Aid, employees will want to contribute to a better world, without having to use their own money directly. However, it remains a possibility, not an obligation. We help employees who want to start initiatives such as a running race or a donation drive for a local charity. Are you someone who likes to give or someone who has great ideas for making the world a bit better? Then you can give substance to that within Ventura. Do you just want to choose a charity once a year for a donation of 250 euros? Then that's just fine too.
Charity is not a duty, it is a joy.
