Learning for life together
The Red Cross Aus Liebe zum Menschen Foundation promotes social coexistence with a wide range of projects and helps disadvantaged people. One of the foundation's main areas of focus is education. Every year, around 8,000 socially disadvantaged young people in Austria finish their education without completing compulsory schooling.
This is where the 12 learning houses throughout Austria help: with individual learning assistance and leisure activities, children and young people are supported in overcoming educational disadvantages and developing a positive learning and working attitude. The children are supported by professional educators and volunteers and are encouraged to recognize the opportunities and paths that life has in store for them as part of the programme.

“We are delighted that this has created another opportunity for investors to invest money and make a contribution to a future worth living,” says Michael Opriesnig, Secretary General of the Red Cross.
“When investing sustainably, it is important to also take social factors into account. Targeted management of investments can make a positive contribution to the “S” in ESG. The cooperation with the Aus Liebe zum Menschen Foundation is therefore another important step for us in drawing attention to social issues,” says Heinz Bednar, CEO of Erste Asset Management.
The Red Cross reported on the cooperation with Erste Asset Management in the March issue of the magazine “Mein Rotes Kreuz”. Click here for the article (page 18).

ERSTE FAIR INVEST
The fund for socially sustainable investing.

Please note that investing in securities entails opportunities as well as risks.
The fund covers a wide range of aspects and themes. The basis is formed by the three major thematic blocks “Health & Well-being”, “Work” and “Society”.
Health & well-being
Physical health is probably everyone's greatest asset. Everyone needs different things for their personal well-being. From sport and healthy eating to caring for pets as a contribution to mental balance. This is why the fund invests in companies that enrich our lives in a sustainable way, focusing on the areas of health, care, lifestyle and pets.
Work
We believe that companies with a diverse group of satisfied employees and a balanced ratio of female and male managers are more successful in the long term and want to make targeted investments in this. The topics here are Happy @ Work, Female Leadership and Diversity & Inclusion.
Society
A fair society gives its members fair opportunities through broad education and financial prosperity for all. Another building block for a fair society with a high standard of living is social infrastructure, such as in smart cities. The focus here is on education, financial prosperity and public and inclusive transportation.
