Recently, Plasman Ghent Manufacturing donated to a local charity mattress covers that had previously been purchased to pull over bumpers. Through 5S (a five-step workplace organization methodology) these covers resurfaced, which gave the Ghent team the idea to reach out to De Kiekenstraat.
De Kiekenstraat is an Organization for Special Youth Care specializing in Youth and Integrated Family Care. They offer support to children, young people, and young vulnerable families through various working methods, such as living groups for children and young people, room training and context guidance for independent living. Their support center for parents is a major asset in creating a connection between children and their environment. The Center for Integrated Family Care (CIG) offers both guidance and accommodation for (future) parents, single or not, whose family cohesion, care for the next generation, and social integration is at risk or has already been disrupted.
Ghent Manufacturing arranged for the covers to be washed, neatly folded, and personally delivered to De Kiekenstraat.
This is just another example of how our global Plasman team members continue to be committed to making a positive impact in the communities where we live and work.
Through our corporate partnership program called MVP – Corporate Giving, Fundraising, and Participating, we place great importance on working together as one team across our 22 locations with a global focus in supporting the communities in which we live and work.
Plasman is more than a global leader in automotive manufacturing – we are a team committed to affecting change, helping children in need, and giving back to our communities.
