Health & social aspects
MLP supports sustainable development of the German healthcare system. In the financial year 2009 we once again published the MLP Health Report together with the Allensbach Institute and the German Medical Association. In this representative survey, both the general public and doctors give their assessment of the status quo and the further development of the healthcare system.
The key focus of MLP’s donations and sponsorships remains on strengthening social solidarity. Examples here include support of the “Postillion” association, which works with young people and children in the Rhine-Neckar region, the “Arbeitsgemeinschaft Soziale Nothilfe e. V.” association, the “Waldpiraten” in Heidelberg (an institute of the German Cancer Foundation) and the “Stiftung Erlanger Kinderhilfe” children’s aid foundation. In addition to this, MLP’s HQ in Wiesloch and several other MLP branches, including Hamburg and Pforzheim, collected a total of around € 25,000 in Christmas donations in 2009, which were then passed on to nonprofit institutions and associations.
