Autofox Helps: Autofox expands its fleet with UNICEF Land Rover Defender vehicles
„We bought all the vehicles in stock. We have acquired them
as assets, however, we know that leasing companies can prepare an operating
lease calculation very quickly. The reason is simple, we do not intend to keep
them and we will send them further within the circular economy,“ Marek Balla,
Managing Director of Autofox, said.
Autofox is considering a number of options for dealing with the new fleet. „We
would like to enlarge some of them with the help of Mr. Tau and send them on a
humanitarian mission to the Ukrainian border to the cars that are already
operating here. By tunning upgrade of another part and auctioning then donate
the proceeds to help Ukraine as well. The rest will be donated to Ukrainian
children,“ Marek Balla outlined, adding that Autofox is also open to other
proposals, such as involve automotive companies in the tunnning action.
The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) is part of the United Nations (UN).
It deals with the protection and improvement of children's living conditions
and the support of their all-round development. A few days ago, UNICEF
announced a crisis fundraiser to help Ukraine. A number of other non-profit
organizations are also helping in the area, such as the consortium Help Ukraine
(PomahejUkrajine.cz).
Mr. Tau is a character from a children's television series and several feature
films, in which he embarks on large and small adventures and fulfills every
children's wish. He is characterized by a magic bowler hat, an umbrella, a
classy tailcoat and a shy smile. The series can be viewed on the Czech
Television internet broadcast (CeskaTelevize.cz/porady/898388-pan-tau).
As part of the Autofox Helps CSR program, Autofox will also temporarily include
news from companies and organizations in the automotive industry that are
helping the situation in Ukraine in some way in its information service Autofox
News. Typically, these will be public news, i.e. texts in unchanged form, and
thus published under the sub-label Autofox Public News.
„I believe we can inspire other companies to help mitigate the effects of the
war which affects millions of Ukrainian children,“ Marek Balla concluded a
message intended not only for children.
