| Mitsubishi Electric Europe B.V. (German Branch) in Ratingen has provided funds for the renovation of the Ratingen-West Family Center, a valuable meeting place for families and children in the area since 1987. In preparation for the work, volunteers from the Kinderschutzbund (Organisation for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children) cleared out the rooms in the center and made space for the painting work to begin. New furniture was added, and lighting was installed by local electricians. The official reopening of the center took place in February 2009. The center is now in optimal condition, making the work of the organization easier. Further cooperation between the Kinderschutzbund and Mitsubishi Electric is planned for the future. |
