The partnership between SOS Children’s Villages worldwide and the Europe-wide company CEWE has been in place since 2013. Through this long-term collaboration, the relationship has developed into a trusting and sustainable partnership.

As part of this partnership, the collaboration has become a matter close to CEWE’s heart. As a result, the company has now provided SOS Children’s Villages worldwide with more than 2.75 million euros in support. In addition to funding long-term projects and supporting current emergency aid projects, CEWE is also involved through donations in kind and the voluntary work of numerous employees at various locations in Germany and Europe. This has led to particularly close relationships with SOS Children’s Villages in Hungary, the Czech Republic, Poland, Austria, Croatia, France, Norway, Belgium and even Ghana.

CEWE supports different projects with funds or print products. In Oldenburg and its surroundings this includes, for instance, the Kultursommer event, the Weser-Ems-Hallen venue and the Park Gardens. For the tenth time already, CEWE was one of the sponsors in 2019 supporting the Children and Youth Book Fair in Oldenburg (KIBUM), a unique book event staged in Germany. For the fourth time now, CEWE has cooperated in Slovakia with the Nadácia detského kardiocentra foundation, an agency specialised in child patients born with heart deficiencies. CEWE also gave away vouchers for CEWE products for multiple smaller initiatives.

We here at CEWE promote movement in recreational sports and in professional sports. Many sports associations and events benefit from our support. CEWE supports popular ballgames in recreational sports. Since 2015, CEWE has been the sponsor lending its name to the primary school league CEWE Baskids which gives kids the opportunity to play in an organised basketball league.

The production locations tend to support local clubs with long-term sponsorships. For instance, the partnership with Oldenburg's EWE Baskets, a professional basketball club, is going into its tenth season. And even the women's handball Bundesliga team, VFL Oldenburg has been a firm partner for years. CEWE continues to equally support other sports disciplines, such as equestrian events and rowing clubs.

The educational commitment wishes to support the education of junior recruits and promote CEWE's rapport with society. The network of education and research establishments that has been built over decades has produced many a cooperation with schools, specialist colleges and universities. A regular exchange, shared projects, and teaching appointments by many seasoned executives result in valuable knowledge sharing between practice and theory. For example, CEWE collaborates with Landesberufsschule Photo + Medienforum Kiel, a vocational facility, and hosted the "Management Information Game" for the 21^st time in 2019. Pupils from Liebfrauenschule Oldenburg compete in three groups for the best marketing strategy.

The commitment shared with universities currently includes funding for five stipends under the Deutschlandstipendium, including one at Stuttgart Media University, one at the Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg and a further three at Jade University of Applied Sciences in Wilhelmshaven. At the University of Oldenburg CEWE, together with other industry partners from the region, called to life an endowed chair for Applied Artificial Intelligence in 2019.
