With the Gammel Family Social Fund, we want to provide targeted help where support is urgently needed. The fund consists of the proceeds from our internal Christmas party, at which an auction is held among our employees every year. In our regular staff meetings, we then collect suggestions for possible donation recipients together - this is how we decide as a team where the donations should go.
There was still €4,000 available from the current fund pot for 2025. Together, we decided to donate half of this - €2,000 - to the Friends of Cabrini House.
The Friends of Cabrini House was founded over 10 years ago and sees itself as a community of people who want to support the children, young people and adult residents of Cabrini House.
We were delighted to welcome Stefan Seehofer, General Manager of the Cabrini Center, to the house today to hand over the donation. Together with Gudrun Gammel and employees, the donation check was handed over. Mr. Seehofer expressed his sincere thanks for the support that the Cabrini Centre has been receiving for years - both institutionally and through the Gammel family's private commitment to their circle of friends.
One part of the donation will be used to enable a resident to take part in the school trip to Berlin - an experience that is of great importance to the young person. The remaining amount will be used for joint activities for the residents, such as going out to eat together, which everyone is always very happy about.
A big thank you to all our employees: Together, we show how much we can achieve - and we are very proud of that. 💛
On June 2, 2026, we welcomed the newly elected state chairman of the FDP Bavaria, Matthias Fischbach, as well as the new Secretary General Daniel Kuhagen together with the FDP Kelheim - represented by Susanne Blask and Dr. Heinz Kroiss - at Gammel Engineering in Abensberg.
Yesterday, we welcomed a special visitor to Gammel Engineering: the cyclists of the Glückstour 2026 made a stop at our premises. With great personal commitment, they are collecting donations for children with cancer and serious illnesses on their tour. This impressive initiative has been moving people and providing concrete help for many years.
