Dominic Hamers: We have supported more than 1,000 noble causes

‘We have over 30 years’ experience in the sphere of corporate social responsibility. We have supported more than 1,000 projects over the years,’ said Mr Dominic Hamers, Executive Director of Geotechmin OOD during the event Meeting of the Business in Sofia District organised by Capital Daily under Capital Cities project. He participated in the panel “Responsible business benefits society and environment”.

The corporate social responsibility programmes and initiatives of GEOTECHMIN GROUP are primarily implemented in the municipalities where our companies operate, particularly Ellatzite-Med AD – the Group’s largest company which employs more than 2,000 people.
Mr Dominic Hamers explained how the Bulgarian Virtues Charity Programme was launched by the President of Geotechmin OOD Prof. DSc. Eng. Tzolo Voutov in 2018, jointly with four companies from the Group – Geotechmin OOD, Ellatzite-Med AD, Geostroy AD and Geotrading AD. The programme commenced with well-defined projects and a clear budget.

‘It is important for us to support projects which have a lasting impact on local communities, to create a better living environment and raise people’s living standards. We also provide disaster relief services. For example, on the initiative of Prof. DSc. Eng. Tzolo Voutov, we helped people who had been severely affected by the floods in the town of Etropole and we donated funds to the Bulgarian Red Cross for the victims of the devastating earthquake in Türkiye and Syria,’ said Mr Dominic Hamers.
