COMMITTEES

Our motto is our mission: To dry little tears with drive and transparency. We have already achieved a lot, with committed project partners, courageous supporters and many volunteers, especially from the globally operating Sixt family. So far, we have successfully completed around 150 projects in 45 countries. So it is only right that our initiative has also been the Sixt Group’s official CSR programme since 2011. Wherever we can do good, whether in orphanages, children's hospices, kindergartens, schools and children's hospitals: We know that we can make a difference there with your help. And the great thing about it: We find that when we take care of others our own lives gain a deeper meaning.

In the Sixt Corporate Social Responsibility programme, we show a sense of responsibility beyond the corporate boundaries. On the one hand, the management board seeks to nurture the capabilities of employees and provide them with scope for their personal development. On the other, we as a company - as well as our employees - wish to show publicly the responsibility we are taking for social concerns. In addition to the day-to-day work for the company, Sixt very deliberately provides employees with scope for such involvement. If an employee has a vision in line with our guiding principles and which matches our values, we provide them with scope to make their vision a reality. So we create a situation that offers benefits for everyone, in that the employee has a role in shaping Sixt and feels valued as a result. This also strengthens his or her loyalty to the company - and helps children around the world who so desperately need our help.

As the Sixt Managing Board and also as board members of the Regine Sixt Children's Aid Foundation, our aim is to do all we can to help as many children as possible around the world.
ith the “Drying Little Tears” programme and with the voluntary help of our employees - which includes the “Drying Little Tears Day” activities initiated and managed by employees themselves - we have succeeded, over the years, in successfully implementing the first 250 projects and initiatives of the Regine Sixt Children's Aid Foundation. As managing board members we seek to contribute with our energy and knowledge so that children can be helped successfully in the next 250 projects. The aim is for there soon to be an aid project in every Sixt country around the world.

As board members of the Regine Sixt Children's Aid Foundation, we seek to play an active role in contributing to ensuring success over the long-term. It is important not to focus solely on large scale initiatives, but also on a small scale to respond rapidly and help disadvantaged and severely sick children. We ensure that all aid arrives directly with the project managers and is there to help those they are protecting. Our experience helps us in this, as does our network around the globe, which has developed over the decades.
