|
Nieder-Olm, 30 September, 2019 (APA/OTS) - Since 2002, when employees of Rynkeby Foods A/S decided to ride their bicycles to Paris for a good cause, the Team Rynkeby project has become Europe's biggest charity cycling event. More than 2,000 cyclists from 7 countries took part in the initiative in 2019 and collected 10.6 million euros for children suffering from severe illnesses. An absolute record, that amount exceeds the previous year's result by 12.6 percent. |

Eckes-Granini has been the main sponsor of Team Rynkeby ever since
2016, when Rynkeby Foods A/S 2016 joined the Eckes-Granini Group.
Thanks to its engagement, donations amounting to over EUR 56 million
have been collected in the 17 years since Team Rynkeby was founded.
"We are proud to be able to support this project and everyone
involved in it and we wish to thank all sponsors and riders for
their commitment. We have been impressed with the incredible
dedication shown by everyone associated with this initiative from
the outset," says Thomas Hinderer, Chairman and CEO of the
Eckes-Granini Group.
Success in 2019: record donations and German participation 2019 has been an especially successful year. The 2,000 cyclists
from seven countries included 55 participants from Germany, who made
the journey from Nieder-Olm to Paris via Koblenz and Bonn at their
own expense. Thanks to this team effort, the initiative set a record
of over 10 million euros in donations. The Eckes-Granini Group, with
its Rynkeby, God Morgon and hohes C brands, acts as the main sponsor
and thus covers all the costs of organizing the charity event, which
means that 100 percent of the proceeds go to local partner
organizations. A German team went to the starting line for the first
time this year. "We are more than pleased to contribute both
financially and personally to the success of this global project
with Team Rynkeby - hohes C, adds Thomas Hinderer. "As a
family-owned enterprise, we are very happy to do our part on behalf
of others and help improve the circumstances of those affected."
The Team Rynkeby project Team Rynkeby is the Eckes-Granini Group's lighthouse project.
Initiated by employees of the Danish company Rynkeby Foods A/S, it
is now the most successful charity cycling team in Europe. Numerous
helpers work as volunteers for 54 teams from Denmark, Sweden,
Finland, Norway, the Faroe Islands, Iceland and Germany. Aside from
the main sponsor, the Eckes-Granini Group and its Rynkeby, God
Morgon and hohes C brands, the initiative also receives support from
noteworthy patrons in the business and industrial sectors. Efforts
to build Team Rynkeby - Europe are currently in progress. The
cyclists on this team come from all the countries in which the
Eckes-Granini Group is represented.
Making the difference internationally Local organizations devoted to helping severely ill children and
their families benefit from the donations that are collected every
year. Team Rynkeby provides support above all for international
institutions that cater for the needs of cancer patients and have
devoted themselves to research and the treatment of the various
types of cancer. In Denmark, for example, donations go to the
B?rnecancerfonden, a childhood cancer organization. Donations
amounting to EUR 160,000 go to the Deutsche Kinderkrebshilfe.
