We are pleased to announce to have made it possible for 100 Ukrainian pupils to start school in Vienna by sponsoring intensive German courses.
Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, the "Ukrainian Saturday School in Vienna" has taken in countless new students who were displaced from their country. A great number of pupils are still on the waiting list. The majority of the children are expected to stay in Austria for a longer period of time and therefore need support in learning the German language.
One of the goals of C-Quadrat Investment Group has always been to support children from conflict regions and help them to get a better start in life. We hope that these German courses help towards that goal.

Bees are the mainstay of our ecosystem. More than 80% of native flowering plants depend on their pollination. One third of global food production depends on bees and other insects. The C-Quadrat Investment Group would like to make a contribution in the fight against the decline of the global bee population and supports the initiative of Beefuture. The beekeepers of Beefuture lovingly and professionally take care of the C-Quadrat beehive, which has recently found its new home in Lower Austria. A pleasant side effect: up to 15 kg of honey can be harvested per year and hive!
