Lecture about domestic violence

We would like to say a big thank you to all ladies who attended Tuesday's lecture on domestic violence at Atrea. Your presence is not only of great importance to us as we see interest from other employers, but more importantly it is crucial to all victims who are suffering with, have suffered or know someone for whom domestic violence is an ongoing issue. It is no exaggeration to say that your actions to support the fight against this problem could save lives. After all, tens of women are murdered every year in relation to this issue in the Czech Republic!

A big thank you to the great PhDr. Branislava Marvánová Vargová, who gave an engaging presentation. Let us also thank to the organization ROSA, which has been fighting domestic violence in its various forms for several decades.

Thank you!

We're delivering rescue vehicles to Ukrainian defenders

This time we would like to thank AEROTEC company, who contacted us and offered their products that extend the lifespan of engines in extremely tough conditions.

Thank you and thanks from the Ukrainian heroes! We are now delivering the 4th car, and preparing the 5th. These cars are saving lives in very difficult terrain and their speed and reliability in extremely adverse conditions make the difference between life and death. This is where AEROTEC's products will help the defenders on the front line.

Thank you!

The Heart of Europe for Ukraine

Join us to save lives in Ukraine

There is a fatal shortage of off-road vehicles in Ukraine that can save frontline defenders. In partnership with Post Bellum, we have created a project to buy and then deliver rescue vehicles to the frontline.

Summer camp for children from the children's home

There is nothing in the world more beautiful than a child's joy.

That's why we decided to support the children's home in Frýdlant for the umpteenth time and paid for the summer camps they chose.

We hope that the children enjoyed the camps very much, but judging by the photos it was a summer full of unforgettable experiences.

Laminating machine for disabled children´s school

Once again we supported the Zborovská primary school in Turnov. We bought them a laminating machine, which will be used primarily by disabled children, because they use a lot of paper tools in their lessons, so thanks to the possibility of laminating it will at least last longer.

ATREA foundation against domestic violence!

Over the past 22 years, 249 women have been murdered by their partners in the Czech Republic. Last year 23 women and 8 children were murdered, this year 11. Domestic violence is one of the most disgusting features of society and one of the most pervasive problems in Europe! In the EU, one in three women was a victim of psychological or physical violence!

That is why, as part of the ATREA Foundation, we have equipped a shelter centre where women with children hide from abusers. We bought bedding, kitchen equipment and basic appliances so that women and children could rest safely. See more at https://www.rosacentrum.cz/

ATREA foundation summary for 2022

We believe business should care about its surroundings. 

200 trauma kits for the front-line combatants

These Ukrainian brave men are protecting their families from the Russian war aggressors. We have delivered 200 trauma kits for the front-line combatants. We want to thank them. Small drop but we hope it will help. United civilization must protect against barbarians.

Professional first aid kits intended for tactical medicine

Putin has declared war against the West, against all of us. We are pleased that on the very day when the Russian war aggressor has declared a partial mobilization and is thus further escalating its war crimes against Ukraine, we, on behalf of our Atrea Foundation, are handing over to the Ukrainian side medical supplies for emergency medical aid worth a total of EUR 8.300,-. These are specifically professional first aid kits intended for tactical medicine. We thank all the Ukrainian women and men who are fighting for the freedom of Europe against the war aggressor. Shame on fascist Russia! Slava Ukrayini!

Support for refugees from Ukraine

We have obtained a request from Russia. We were surprised. To do business in days when Russians are killing children and civilians? For us this is no go zone! The Kremlin regime has brought shame on Russians for decades. On the contrary, we at ATREA are doing our small best to support the Ukrainian refugees – mainly mothers with children fleeing from Russian atrocities - and we announced a company gathering to support refugees. Our company foundation then doubled any contribution from our colleagues and friends. In cooperation with the Liberec Region, we then equipped three facilities for war refugees - mainly mothers with children and the elderly, for a total of 15.000,- EUR. Thus, we at the ATREA foundation followed up the bedding we had already supplied with additional equipment, namely washing machines, stoves, dryers, refrigerators, and wardrobes. The kids and mothers are safe here in our region. Shame on Russia! Slava Ukrayini!

Help for fugitive mothers with small children from Ukraine

The Russian aggressors is murdering kids, civilians, the elderly and trying to destroy Ukraine. The Kremlin as a fascist system is changing its state into a new North Korea, into one big Orwell cult turning their population into slaves or hostages. The era after 1989 is over and our civilisation is being tested as to whether we can resist, support, fight back. What can we do in our own private lives? We at ATREA have decided to support with what we can and help the fugitive mothers with small children as a matter of compassion. We have bought 200 blankets, bed sheets, pillows and all needed (one full truck) for the newly prepared refugee centre in Liberec so that exhausted mums and their small kids can sleep safely. We have joined forces – we at Atrea, cooperative people in Jysk shops, where we found lacking goods during these  days of war, local county staff, all trying to make our small effort for the people in need. Shame on Russia! Slava Ukrayini!

Support for soldier Stanislav

ATREA foundation has supported a soldier Stanislav that remained tetraplegic after an unfortunate jump into the shallow water. Stanislav however hasn´t given up and remains fighting. We are supporting him in getting a new special wheelchair enabling him to get to physiotherapy and the gym. He´ll be happy for any support possibly also from you!

Help for Moravia

As Moravia – part of the Czech Republic – was hit by a tornado this summer, the ATREA foundation joined the public fund raiser for the reconstruction of an elementary school in a small Moravian village organised by Jablonec nad Nisou – the town of our location. We helped with EUR 2,000 and we are continuing with our effort in other healthcare, social and educational projects.

Support for often hidden or forgotten heroes

The covid situation hit the Czech Republic very hard. The Atrea foundation wanted to support often hidden or forgotten heroes – emergency crews, ambulance drivers and telephone operators saving lives every day, literally every hour. We asked what they would appreciate and they just said – quick food. They were too busy and too exhausted to want more. Respect for their work!! We bought as much energy in biscuits, juices, coffees, energy bars, protein bars, etc.  as we could and added coffee mugs so that they could keep the energy also in the future. Thanks to these true heroes!

Help for children

Difficult days are here for many people in our country. But we did not want to resign from also helping others. The child psychiatric ward our local hospital has children that were in need of some fitness equipment. Sport is an important means of helping them live in the present, release stress and simply have fun. We met there dedicated and very nice staff members that do their amazing work, and so we donated some of the fitness equipment, boxing gloves and table tennis equipage. Thank you for staying with us, help us to help – or even better – join us to help.-)
