(PRESS RELEASE) OBERKOCHEN, 12-Nov-2025 — /EuropaWire/ — HENSOLDT has marked the 70th anniversary of the German Armed Forces (Bundeswehr) with a €10,000 donation to Bundeswehr-Sozialwerk e.V., an organization dedicated to providing financial and material support to soldiers, their families, and surviving dependants. The contribution underscores HENSOLDT’s appreciation for the service and sacrifices of military personnel and reinforces its close relationship with the Bundeswehr.

“The Sozialwerk provides financial and material support to members of the German Armed Forces, their families, and surviving dependants,” said Oliver Dörre, CEO of HENSOLDT. “As a former soldier, I have seen first-hand how the association has supported comrades who have found themselves in dire straits, who were wounded in action, or who lost loved ones. The German Armed Forces serve Germany and thus all of us and our security. That cannot be taken for granted. With this donation, we are expressing our gratitude to the soldiers, but also to their families.”

Founded in 1960, the Bundeswehr-Sozialwerk e.V. has been supporting service members in need for over six decades. The organization focuses on helping military families balance service and home life—particularly when one parent is deployed abroad—and organizes recreational and support activities for children, young people, and parents.

HENSOLDT’s donation highlights its ongoing social commitment beyond defence technology and innovation. By supporting the Bundeswehr-Sozialwerk, HENSOLDT continues to honour those who safeguard Germany’s security and wellbeing, extending its gratitude to the soldiers and families whose dedication strengthens the nation every day.
