Our Mission:
Purple Holding is doing well as a business. With the luck of being so allowed, we help those in need to do well too. We pick focused local organisations that do meaningful work and support them in their efforts.
Basic Principles of Our Help
Local
We want to start helping locally and then spread the support further. At the beginning, we are opting for people and organizations in the Czech Republic and Slovakia and wish to help in Europe and perhaps worldwide in the future.
Equality
We focus on society. We understand that in life, your skills and talents might get you far, but if your circumstances are unfortunate, you might not get a chance to use them. We are here to enhance the equality of opportunities.
Varied
Variety is what we aim for. We do not wish to support only one or two particular types of projects. We try keep an open mind and look out for those in need of urgent help, wherever they might come from.
Shared
We make the choices together as a company. The foundation is represented by a committee of a few, but the incentives and ideas on whom to help come from all of us.
Hand-Picked
We do our research and opt for official organizations with transparent financing, in an urgent need of help and a long-lasting impact.
Where We Help
In 2018 we have decided to help the following projects
SpoleCnost E (E Company)
E is an organization supporting placing people with epilepsy into a job market. They create and arrange wonderful bouquets, employing amazing and skilful people with epilepsy. They decorate numerous offices, event venues and homes with their flower arrangements and spread awareness about epilepsy. Our company has decided to help them via purchasing an automobile for their arrangement deliveries.
Dobry andel (Good Angel)
GOOD ANGEL is a system through which as many as tens of thousands donors, known as “Good Angels”, can provide much-needed help to thousands of families whose members are facing serious a illness, such as cancer or cystic fibrosis. We bow to their Angel values - joy, cooperation, respect and courage and are truly happy to be able to support the organization.
Hospices
We have offered our help to institutions that care about our elderly, those with mental disorders or those with terminal illnesses. Our aim is to help them be more comfortable, less lonely and allow the employees of these institutions to spend more quality time with their patients by making their work easier. So far, we have helped two organizations and there are more to come!
Dom sv. Kamila v ziline (House of saint Camillus in Zilina)
The house is an institution that helps the elderly, sick, abandoned, disabled, children and young people, families in need and the homeless. Running such facility is not easy and the employees of the institution are all hard-working people with gentle and giving souls. We helped them ease the financial burden of running the house by paying for a one-year supply of cleaning supplies which are much needed.
Hospic sv. Jiri v Chebu (Hospice of saint George in Cheb)
This hospice is helping terminally ill patients who wish to be at home with their family and loved ones in their final days and were recommended palliative care. They offer health care in families and 24/7 emergency help and Purple Foundation decided to help them by financing the purchase of several wheelchairs and sanitary supplies.
Children´s Haemato-Oncology Center in Ostrava
Due to a new regulation, the parents of sick children are not allowed to use a kitchen in the Clinic. We have decided to help them buy a new one, since they desire comfortable environment in order to support their children in such a difficult time.
What's New
Our team has big plans for this year, we already helped Společnost E to buy a new car. Thanks to our support this organization, employing people with epilepsy, can easily deliver their beautiful flower arrangement decorations and grow!
