In addition to the above-mentioned donation amounts, RBI supports numerous projects and activities through
sponsorship as part of its social and cultural commitment. As the projects supported are in a position to make a
contribution to society, we also report on corresponding initiatives.
To meet our social responsibility, RBI decided years ago not to restrict itself to only a few major aid projects but
instead to place factors such as personal commitment and regional societal challenges at the forefront of our
decisions. RBI and its employees are involved in a wide range of projects and initiatives by providing financial
support or by fostering contacts.
In line with the principle of helping others to help themselves, RBI provides support in the field of education,
science and research, culture and art, sports and health, as well as charitable initiatives and environmental
protection activities, often in cooperation with various NGOs.
