FOUNDATION PROGRAMS Words of donors “The mission of Teta drogerie is to turn shopping into a pleasant experience, Teta drogerie customers are mostly women, to whom motherhood very often belongs. Therefore, in the moment when we HELP THE CHILDREN were looking for a partner for CSR activities, we chose the one who focuses on women or children who are trying to make life more enjoyable. I think this unites us. I am glad that we were able to connect with the Civil Society Development Foundation, which not only has a long history, but is completely transparent. We are grateful to be a part of this successful project. By selling Teta magazine, we can actively contribute to helping endangered and disadvantaged children, whose lives will be made easier by our support.“ Gali Vondráček Pohlová The amount of paid endowment contributions: CZK 10 042 436 Marketing manager for product and brand, Solvent ČR Ltd.
