#FERIhilft - achieving more together: for refugees

At FERI, helping the affected people from/in Ukraine is very close to our hearts. Inspired by suggestions from our colleagues, we have supported various aid campaigns over the course of the year.

Team Rynkeby Europe: Cycling for seriously ill children

We have been sponsoring the charity cycling project Team Rynkeby since 2021. Every year, its tours raise money to support seriously ill children and their families - in Germany for the Deutsche Kinderkrebsstiftung (German Children Cancer Foundation).

This year, Team Rynkeby Europe cycled around 950 km in 7 days from Provence to the Eiffel Tower - over mountains and through blistering heat. On the very first day they went over the Mont Ventoux, the giant of Provence with almost 2000 m height! We think this is a strong performance and are happy to support Team Rynkeby Europe as a bronze sponsor again this year.

TC Seulberg: FERI promotes local club work

We have been a partner of the local tennis club TC Seulberg since 2020. Thus, we support the important club work in our home region. The club's special concern is youth work. However, the club can only expand its financial support for highly talented youth players with sporting prospects together with sponsors. We are happy to help with that. 

And we are also happy to be involved as a supporter in the club's 50th anniversary celebrations. 

Löwenzahn Hochtaunus: holistic palliative care for the home

We have been supporting Löwenzahn Hochtaunus since 2020. Our CEO, Marcel Renné (right), was able to see for himself at the donor and sponsor meeting in November 2021 what valuable work the team led by Astrid Schulz (left) and Catharina Rappold (center) does every day. In addition to the purely medical and nursing home care of patients by the palliative team, the Löwenzahn team also provides real psychological support to relatives at the same time. And since this is unfortunately not covered by health insurance, it is a great concern of ours to support them financially.

First aid for kids: learning to help through play

The coloring and workbook "First Aid for Children" by the Förderverein der Luftrettungsstation Christoph 2 in Frankfurt am Main e.V. and the KIM publishing group teaches children of elementary school age in an age-appropriate way how to behave properly in an emergency situation and how to help others. We are pleased that, thanks to our support, the books can be distributed free of charge to schools in the Hochtaunuskreis district.

Bad Homburger Sommer 2018: July 20th to August 11th, 2018

Like FERI, the Bad Homburg Summer event has been around for over 30 years. Singers, orchestras and bands perform on the outdoor summer stages. Classical music is catered for as well as jazz, rock, pop and folk. There is something for everyone, even entertainment for the little ones. Thanks to the support of partners and sponsors, all concerts can be attended free of charge.

In 2018, FERI was a partner of the concerts by the children’s songwriter Ferri and the cover band Diva.

Sport support: FERI supports youth work of Eintracht Frankfurt

The 30th FERI Conference took place in November 2017 in the Commerzbank Arena in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. As part of the event Dr Heinz-Werner Rapp, Chief Investment Officer and member of the Executive Board of Feri AG (right) and Carsten Hermann, Managing Director at FERI Trust GmbH (left), presented a cheque to Peter Fischer, President of Eintracht Frankfurt e. V., as a donation to support the association’s regional youth work.
