Supporting Our Region
The ČEZ Group supports life in the regions in which it operates.
We invest in local communities through one of the country’s largest foundations – the ČEZ Foundation. We contribute to social events in the areas around our power plants and other operations, build playgrounds, and also safe crosswalks.
Through Staff Grants, we support non-profits in which our employees volunteer. In the South Bohemian region, we have thus supported 140 projects, by giving them a total of CZK 4The ČEZ Group supports life in the regions in which it operates.
Children’s days, celebrating municipal anniversaries, reunions of local patriots, as well as various sports competitions and social or cultural events.
Those are only a few examples of the hundreds of events that annually take place in the areas around our nuclear power plants under the Orange Year banner. According to representatives from local governments, this unusual project significantly enhances the activities of individual associations, sports clubs, and cultural and other organisations. ČEZ does not donate funds solely for the most important sports, cultural, or social events, but also for projects that “merely” involve local residents. And that is very important for community life, especially in smaller municipalities. In the Temelín area, ČEZ has provided more than a hundred million crowns over nearly twenty years. And municipalities in the Dukovany area received a similar amount.
