SOFTSWISS, a global provider of software technology for the iGaming sector, with its employees has actively helped communities affected by the recent floods in southern Poland.
In September, Storm Boris brought devastating floods to Central and Eastern Europe, causing widespread damage. Torrential rain left thousands of homes submerged, severely affecting several cities in Poland, the Czech Republic and Romania.
In Poland, the southern region was hardest hit, with dozens of cities requiring urgent evacuations and support for affected communities.
SOFTSWISS is technology and solidarity in times of crisis
Therefore, to provide immediate relief, SOFTSWISS made a financial donation to the Wielka Orkiestra Świątecznej Pomocy (Great Christmas Charity Orchestra), a well-known Polish charitable organization.
SOFTSWISS has two development offices in Poland. This allowed employees to quickly join the relief efforts and offer their assistance during the flood.
Under the company’s coordination, Polish employees packed boxes weighing more than 100 kilograms of essential items, including:
- Food
- Hygiene products
- Essential items such as matches, candles and batteries
SOFTSWISS delivered these supplies to Caritas Polska, a charitable organization leading relief efforts in affected areas.
Help to Brazil also because of floods
Earlier this year, SOFTSWISS also organized a large-scale charity and awareness campaign to support flood-hit regions in Brazil.
“Unfortunately, natural disasters happen, and we don’t want to stand still. As such, we strive to help in any way we can. This aligns with one of our core values, We See People, which doesn’t just apply to our employees. We always look at people beyond the business, and I believe our ESG initiatives reflect this,” said Natalia Perkowska, Deputy Director of HR at SOFTSWISS.
Thus, the aid campaigns in Poland and Brazil are part of SOFTSWISS’ broader global strategy, focused on social responsibility and sustainable development (ESG).
In other words, the company is also dedicated to long-term social and environmental projects, with notable initiatives such as participation in World Environment Day, Pink October, Movember and various environmental protection efforts.
Recently, SOFTSWISS was recognized as the 2024 Best Employer at the SBC Awards.
