R&D is organising a
NEW SOLIDARITY SALE OF PARMESAN
Since 2017, thousands of you have participated in our solidarity campaign!
Together, we have raised over 55,000€ in donations
THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS!
Last year, thanks to your generosity, and with the help of Eu staff Fund and Eu Can AID www.eucanaid.eu ) with our last campaign we have helped the victims of the war in Ukraine and the earthquake in Morocco ( read our report )
We would like stress again that R&D is not making any financial profit whatsoever from theses campaigns and will cover all transport costs. In addition, with the help of its team of volunteers, R&D will manage all the logistical aspects up to the reception of each colleague who comes to collect his or her parcel.
To give staff every guarantee that their donations will be used effectively, we deem it important to entrust again them to organisations made up of and run by colleagues, just like R&D, accountable at all times for the use of the funds received.
Many of you have asked us to organise another solidarity sale, and as always R&D remains at your service. All the more so when it comes to translating our commitment to solidarity into action, and solidarity is always at the heart of what we do.
With this new solidarity sale, we can bring light and warmth into the hearts of those who need it.
To mark Breast Cancer Prevention Month in October (Cancer du sein – Fondation contre le cancer ) and Lung Cancer Awareness Month in November ( Cancer du poumon – Fondation contre le cancer ), in close collaboration with our Cancer Support Group colleagues, your donations will be dedicated to initiatives that offer relief to colleagues suffering from cancer and their families also supporting prevention and research the field.
Once again, we’re counting on your generosity!
The Parmesan cheese which is the subject of this solidarity sale
As in previous years, and as you had asked us to do when you expressed your complete satisfaction, R&D has once again called on Punto Latte (link), a family-run company with a ” short supply chain”, which uses only milk from its own production for the preparation of Parmesan cheese and which has received several international awards for the quality of its “Parmigiano Reggiano DOP”, including the silver medals for 24-month Parmesan at the World DOP Cheese Competitions.
The Parmesan cheese is additive-free, gluten-free and made from top-quality raw materials. It will be delivered in vacuum packs of about one kilo and can be stored in the refrigerator for 6 months.
Thus, the final price will be 20 € per kilo of parmesan including your 2,5 € donation.
This is a basic donation proposal,
if you wish, you can contribute more generously and support our ongoing projects
