A visionary worthy of all trust. Close to man. These words perhaps best describe Jože Jurgec. He was a defender of employees and the company, enthusiastic about technology and progress, and always faithful to his principles. What is less known is that he also left a mark in the local community with countless individual and official donations. His motto was: »If you can do something and help, do it right away.« And that is also why his successors decided to create a non-profit institution bearing his name. Jože Jurgec Foundation is primarily intended to help children in social need.
The basic principle of the work of the Jože Jurgec Foundation is to treat cases with compassion and feeling towards a fellow human being. The Foundation is particularly dedicated to helping children from socially disadvantaged families and seeks to help them by awarding scholarships and financial and material assistance (computer equipment). The Foundation's ultimate goal is to enable children and their families to stop thinking a bit about their daily worries.
