Raiffeisenbank Oberpfalz Süd finances environmentally friendly initiatives in local schools with a sum of 15,000 euros

Southern Raiffeisenbank Oberpfalz offers €15,000 funding for eco-friendly educational initiatives in local schools.

Raiffeisenbank Oberpfalz Süd eG, a local banking institution, has demonstrated its commitment to sustainability and education by actively engaging in various school projects across the region.

The bank's initiatives aim to foster a future-proof region by promoting knowledge, enthusiasm for climate protection, and social responsibility. Veronika Koller, responsible for sales and marketing at Raiffeisenbank Oberpfalz Süd eG, emphasizes the impact of these projects.

One of the notable projects involves the Oberschule am Heimgarten, where students, under the guidance of a local workshop, created a life-sized, plantable wooden bench for the schoolyard in 2021. Similarly, Obertraubling Secondary School saw its students craft a plantable wooden bench for their schoolyard.

Neutraubling Gymnasium took a creative approach, having students create furniture pieces from old materials and participate in a sustainable architecture competition. All classes at Neutraubling Secondary School also engaged in projects such as making seed bombs, a clothing swap, and environmental workshops on waste separation and land use.

Neutraubling Middle School's students, dubbed future "sustainability assistants," have been actively involved in projects like a power-saving week, a school flea market, and planting a flower meadow.

At Pindl Gymnasium, a wind turbine was constructed for physics lessons, providing new perspectives on renewable energy. The Breitschaft Schools transformed their schoolyard into a "reading nook" with raised beds, demonstrating sustainable nutrition and urban gardening.

Raiffeisenbank Oberpfalz Süd eG's focus on supporting graduating classes and economics classes may indicate a focus on preparing students for sustainable futures. The bank plans to increase its presence at the start of new school projects and has set the grant amount per selected school for the upcoming school year at 3,000 euros.

The bank's increased grant amount per selected school indicates a heightened commitment to its sustainability and education projects. Raiffeisenbank Oberpfalz Süd eG has gained experiences from this year's sustainability projects and intends to specifically support graduating classes and economics classes.

The sustainability idea has always been a part of Raiffeisenbank Oberpfalz Süd eG's operations. The bank's increased involvement in school projects is seen as a commitment to sustainability and education, further bringing the sustainability topic to life in an engaged and creative way. Through its projects, the bank promotes a sustainable future for the region's youth.
