KRONEN’s fundraising campaign for the SOS Children’s Village in Sulzburg
Two members of KRONEN’s Management Board, Rudolf Hans Zillgith and Stephan Zillgith, visited the facility in Sulzburg in person to hand over the company’s donation to the Head of the Children’s Village, Ulrike Ebbing.

Last year, KRONEN GmbH continued to support the SOS Children’s Village Black Forest. At the end of 2024, two members of KRONEN’s Management Board, Rudolf Hans Zillgith and Stephan Zillgith, visited the facility in Sulzburg in person to hand over the company’s donation to the Head of the Children’s Village, Ulrike Ebbing. Together with the other two Managing Directors, Johannes Günther and Eric Lefebvre, and the sum raised among KRONEN employees, the company donated a total of 4,000 euros to the project. This fundraising tradition has now been in place for more than 20 years.

The staff and Management Board of the company KRONEN GmbH, based in Kehl-Goldscheuer, Germany, have been supporting the SOS Children’s Village in Sulzburg in the Black Forest for many years. At the end of 2024, the humanitarian organization for children and young people, which aims to support and accompany the lives of young people, was again delighted to receive a donation totaling 4,000 euros.

The family-managed food technology manufacturer is committed to supporting social, cultural and sports projects in the local region. While staff at the company raised funds for the donation by selling tickets for the annual KRONEN Tombola, the Management Board also made its own contribution to increasing the total.

“Here at KRONEN, we take a responsible approach to our staff, customers, partners and the environment. We also support social and cultural projects, particularly those based in our home region. After all, such projects make our society and our lives that little bit better and more pleasant,” declared KRONEN’s Managing Director, Stephan Zillgith. “Alongside our day-to-day business activities, this is our way of contributing to a better future in which we treat each other responsibly. We are pleased to look back on a very successful and profitable year 2024 and we are delighted to yet again continue our tradition of supporting the SOS Children’s Village in Sulzburg.”
