voestalpine cares run: Running together for a good cause!

The third round of the international voestalpine cares run starts on 1 March 2025. This initiative offers our employees the opportunity to promote their health through sporting activities and at the same time support people in need. Our employees around the world collect digital “cares”, which are converted into donations and benefit international aid projects. Together we move the world!

International aid projects

This year, we are supporting the Austrian Red Cross, UNICEF, Médecins Sans Frontières and Hilfswerk International with projects in Austria, Brazil and Ukraine, among others. In each of the four stages, a target of collected cares will be announced. A donation is unlocked after each stage target is reached. Our goal is to reach the maximum sum of 700,000 euros together!

voestalpine takes its social responsibility seriously. As part of the voestalpine cares run, we want to bundle our social commitment worldwide again this year. Employees are joining forces to raise the maximum amount of money possible.
