For us as a family business, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a matter of course.
We build our business to better pass it on to the next generation. That means we go for long-term success rather than short-term profit goals.
In our policies, we seek a harmonious balance between People, Planet and Environment and Profit. This means that in practice we treat both our employees and our customers as good stewards. Reliability and honesty are core values within our company. We work daily with consideration for the environment and our surroundings. This means, among other things, that we encourage the use of sustainable materials, want to reduce energy consumption and reduce waste. We do this by minimizing sawing waste. Based on these values, we want to be a successful company in our markets. This way of working is not optional, but is anchored in our policy statement and various certificates that you can also view on our website.
As a company, we consider supporting local initiatives and associations very important. We do this by giving financial support, but also by actively rolling up our sleeves and providing resources. We have associated ourselves with various nationally and internationally operating organizations that work for fellow human beings around the world. Below is a small selection of associations and organizations we support that could also use your support.
Hoogendoorn also supports the local soccer club Kozakken Boys, which fulfills an important and social function in the field of sports and exercise for its members in Werkendam and the surrounding area. Meanwhile Kozakken Boys is a household name in the municipality of Altena and has set up several initiatives for the improvement of the living situation of individuals and groups in order to promote (social) participation in the region.
The beautiful nature reserve near Hoogendoorn’s premises is supported by us. The Biesbosch Museum provides insight into the origins and history of the nature reserve. Respect, Relaxation, Education and Inspiration (ROEI) are the core concepts from which the Biesbosch Museum Island fulfills its function.
Woord en Daad works from a biblical perspective to create sustainable change for people living in poverty. In this way, this organization creates hope and new opportunities together. The organization has a business-oriented approach. They choose a good project, work with low overhead costs and personal involvement. Hoogendoorn stands behind the thoughts that every person is created in God’s image and that all people are equal. Therefore we know we are called to reflect God’s love and mercy by giving. Therefore we want to take our responsibility and do our part.
We are proud Business supporters of WWF. With our support, WWF-NL gives forest back to the earth. A forest is more than a sum of trees. A forest is a balanced ecosystem of trees, plants and animals. Forests are also vital to us as humans. They provide us with food, take care of our water balance and are important partners in the fight against climate change. Forests are incredibly important, and yet we are losing them at an alarming rate. Together with WWF-NL, we are giving forests back to the earth. This way we make a positive contribution to climate and biodiversity.
