The results show once again that when we act at grassroots level alongside trusted partners like Habitat for Humanity, we can build a safer future for all of us\u2014especially for the most vulnerable. That is why, in 2025, we chose to continue this partnership and support the community affected by floods in Bro\u0219teni with a new \u20ac200,000 grant. This area is strategically important for us, as we have been present in Suceava county with our Poiana Negrii (Dorna Candrenilor) plant for over 20 years. We remain committed to supporting communities across the country and intervening immediately or long-term whenever needed,\u201d said Alice Nichita, Corporate Affairs &amp; Sustainability Director, Coca-Cola HBC Romania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Coca-Cola HBC Foundation was established in 2023 with the mission of supporting communities in the countries where the company operates, providing grants to non-governmental organizations across four main areas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Community resilience, including disaster relief and recovery<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sustainable access to safe drinking water<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Support for young people from vulnerable backgrounds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Circular economy projects and initiatives<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last year, the foundation funded several projects, including recovery initiatives following severe flooding in multiple countries.
