This decision underlines how serious AFI Solutions is taking its own corporate social responsibility. The concept is inspired by »1% Pledge«, a global movement that encourages companies of all sizes to donate one percent of their profits, »time« or revenue to charity.
This year’s additional payout from AFI Solutions will benefit the commitment of the projects supported to date. Further projects are to be contributed by the AFI employees. Click Commitment and Sustainability to find out what moves AFI Solutions.

In our view, this is a comparatively small commitment that can have a big impact tomorrow.”
