Last year, more than 100,000 Deutsche Post DHL employees in 127 countries around the world participated in over 1,600 community projects and programmes as part of the Group's annual Global Volunteer Day event. Deutsche Post DHL, the world's leading postal and logistics group has once again called on employees, customers and non-profit organisations to lend a hand in volunteer projects as part of the 2014 Global Volunteer Day celebrations.
"It is encouraging to see so many Deutsche Post DHL employees turning out for this year's event and supporting their local communities through volunteerism," says Christof Ehrhart, Director of Corporate Communications and Responsibility at Deutsche Post DHL.
But as Ehrhart explains, the Global Volunteer Day programme is not limited to just these few days in September. "Last year we made the conscious decision to extend Global Volunteer Day to include activities throughout the entire year. By doing, this we are underscoring the value of volunteerism within the Group and honouring the dedication our employees show to their own volunteer projects." In Pakistan, DHL Express marked the Global Volunteer Day with over 500 employees taking part in various volunteering activities across the country. In Karachi, employees participated in a Beach Cleaning Activity at Sea View.-PR
