Social responsibility
Children are our future – which is why we've made it our mission to bring joy to children, especially those in need, several times a year as part of various projects.
Getting things done for a good cause!
Once a year, we swap our desks for screwdrivers, shovels or brushes as part of a Corporate Volunteering Day. Our team's involvement in schools, kindergartens and playgrounds is part of a long-term programme of commitment that is anchored in our corporate philosophy. Whether it's a matter of painting walls, doing carpentry, laying flooring, making flower beds or playing with children, we take on every challenge for a good cause.
The Executive Board is very happy to support the voluntary work of our team. Being able to make a difference together is a great thing.

Charity project
With the Spirit of Play Foundation, we are committed to promoting the importance of play worldwide. Play is more than just entertainment; it supports children's development. By organising fundraising campaigns and cooperating with exhibitors at our events, we give children around the world access to high-quality toys. The products donated by companies benefit specific projects in daycare centres, schools and social institutions - both locally and internationally.
We are convinced that play is essential for the holistic development of children - regardless of age, gender and background. That is why we specifically support the provision of toys and are committed to promoting their positive effects.

Christmas campaign
Christmas is the best time of the year. Spielwarenmesse eG is participating in the "Christmas in a shoe box" campaign in cooperation with the Nuremberg Youth Migration Service to ensure that children in need also get to feel the joy of Christmas. In the run-up to Christmas, employees will be packing boxes with presents, thus making the hitherto unattainable Christmas wishes of many children now come true.
Our commitment to the culture of play
Since 2010, Nuremberg has been home to the German Games Archive, a unique collection of games from all over the world. Spielwarenmesse eG supports the running of the archive with knowledge and networks. As part of the advisory board, we are actively involved in expanding it into a games centre.
