Siemens donates over €1 million for the flood victims in Pakistan

Munich, Germany, 2010-Aug-27

Siemens and its employees have already collected over $1 million in donations for the victims of the flood catastrophe in Pakistan. In order to help the approximately 20 million people affected by the disaster, Siemens will match every euro that its employees donate by September 30, 2010 to a special account established at the Bank für Sozialwirtschaft in Germany. The aid collected will then be transferred to the German Red Cross.

Together with the German Red Cross, Siemens has established an account at the Bank für Sozialwirtschaft (account no.: 41 41 41; bank code: 370 205 00), where employees in Germany can make donations to help the victims. Measures to aid Pakistan are also planned in many other countries where Siemens is active.
