Social commitment: local and international

We as PCC help where it is needed – for a better future

PCC has been committed to social and community issues for many years – both in the vicinity of our Group headquarters in Duisburg and internationally. Our affiliates also support social initiatives. For example, our US subsidiary PCC Chemax, Inc. in Piedmont, South Carolina, has been a partner of an aid facility for children with disabilities for many years. In total, the PCC Group supported 35 social projects as of the end of fiscal 2024.

Initiatives at our Group headquarters in Duisburg

For several years now, we have been donating to the charity Gemeinsam gegen Kälte Duisburg e.V. For over two decades, the volunteers of this non-profit organization have been tirelessly supporting people in Duisburg who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. Find out more about our donations in 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020 and 2019 here.

We also made a donation to the Deutscher Kinderschutzbund OV Duisburg e.V. for its “PlusPunktDU” project. The aim of this project is to advise and support girls and young mothers from difficult social and family backgrounds in Duisburg on their path to training and work.

The PCC stadium at our home base

Very close to our Group head office is the stadium of the top-division soccer club VfB Homberg e.V. Since 2003, we have been the namesake of the PCC Stadium in Duisburg-Homberg and the main sponsor of the soccer club. This underlines our commitment to our home town.

Our children's home in the Amani Orphans' Home children's village in Mbigili

Since 2007, PCC SE has been committed to the African aid project AOHM – Amani Orphans’ Home in Mbigili in Tanzania. PCC is committed to helping those who urgently need our help. With the construction of a children’s home, which was completed in September 2008, we want to make our contribution to greater social responsibility.

The power supply for our children’s home – which incidentally bears the Swahili name “uhai”, meaning “life” – was ensured here by installing our own solar system. We also award study scholarships to pave the way for a better future.
