The Spanish Confederation of Employers and Industries (CEOE) has launched the project Companies that Help with the aim of coordinating, through its Foundation, the solidarity initiatives that companies in Spain are carrying out to contribute to the battle against COVID-19.

A lot of Spanish and foreign companies have wanted to get involved from the first day in the management of this crisis, with different initiatives and solidarity actions.

The CEOE Foundation has also wanted to collaborate, offering its resources to this collective will, to multiply its effectiveness, sourcing donations from our donor companies, determining needs from many beneficiary entities and then matching them.

For this reason, the CEOE Foundation, through its project, Companies that Help, has opened its lines of communication and support for those who require some help, and for companies that want to meet these needs.

All types of sanitary material, especially personal protective equipment for health personnel, patients and individuals and volunteers involved in the fight against COVID-19, as well as other items necessary to help the population, which can range from mattresses, blankets, food, transport, etc.

Although the entire structure of the Spanish Confederation of Employers' Organizations is engaged with this task, this project is developed through the CEOE Foundation, which will carry out an intermediation effort and control the whole process of the donations from donors to beneficiaries

The CEOE Foundation has created a mechanism for receiving and classifying requests and a similar one for offers, so that the Foundation can provide efficient solutions quickly, easing the communication between donors and beneficiaries.
