Siegwerk Thailand supports SOS Children’s Village Nongkhai
The Siegwerk Thailand team enjoys giving back to society and helping those in need. That’s why in Thailand, Siegwerk likes to focus its corporate social responsibility (CSR) work on the SOS Children’s Village in Nongkhai. Siegwerk chose this location because Nongkhai is a poor province located on the border with Laos.
Siegwerk Thailand was represented by the company’s welfare committee, which organized an interactive and effective session with 60 SOS children. They took part in making pizza and painting plaster piggy banks and bags.
The process of learning how to make traditional pizzas was a hit with the children. Working with Siegwerkers to learn how to make pizza dough, mix different toppings and experimenting with cooking gave all the children great satisfaction and a reward of a tasty meal.
Another fantastic session was when the kids got to paint their own plaster piggy banks and bags using colored paint sets. The items made great gifts for the children and will help them learn about saving money for the future.
Siegwerk Thailand is looking forward to more visits and sponsoring other SOS Children’s Villages as part of their annual CSR activity.
