WE CARE – Binder Grösswang Cooks for the Gruft Again

On 31 May 2017, five members of the Binder Grösswang staff once again supported the Caritas organization by cooking for the Gruft.

The Gruft, a charitable institution run by Caritas, provides homeless persons in Vienna with food, clothing, etc. free of charge. The basic principle behind "cooking for the Gruft" is simple. The ingredients are purchased beforehand and brought along to the Gruft, where the meal is prepared in the well-equipped kitchen. Every year, around 150 cooking groups actively support Caritas in this way; Binder Grösswang has participated in this project several times.

Yesterday, the Binder Grösswang employees prepared cucumber salad and "Schinkenfleckerl", a casserole made with noodles and diced ham, and served the meal to some 180 people. The ingredients included a total of 22 kg of ham and 22 kg of cucumbers. With the meal, each person also received a Mannerschnitte wafer for dessert.

In 2015, the law firm launched the programme WE CARE, in which the staff works together to help people in need. Through cooperative initiatives and donations of money and goods, Binder Grösswang supports a variety of projects suggested by staff members.
