Social Engagement – Henkel Smile
Social engagement is firmly anchored in Henkel’s history and corporate values. The company has grouped all its programs in the field of corporate citizenship under the Henkel Smile umbrella. We focus on helping people to help themselves. In Germany, Henkel established the Fritz Henkel Foundation to group the company’s social engagement activities. In 2010, some 730,000 people were helped worldwide through Henkel Smile projects.
