Children are our future – for this reason, Persil has set up the initiative “Projekt Futurino”, which has already made 400 education and development projects possible. As a result, more than 100,000 children have been supported by “Projekt Futurino”. Persil has brought the initiative into being in 2007 on the occasion of its 100th anniversary. Ever since – always over a specific time period – consumers are called to apply with their project ideas.

The focus of “Projekt Futurino” is on projects which enable children to learn more about nature and to acquire a better awareness of the environment while at the same time experiencing its fascination.

Have a look at some projects of “Projekt Futurino” (the video is in German):

With the support of Persil, the Leibniz-Gymnasium in Dormagen realizes the project “Solar energy – our chance for the future”: Sixth grade students get to know zero-emission technologies of the future and can apply their knowledge in photovoltaics and H2-Tecnique. The application for this project was submitted by a physics teacher of this school in fall 2009.

The kindergarten St. Franziskus in Wesel is delighted in the explorer room with two laboratory places which were enabled by “Projekt Futurino”. Many generations of future kindergarten children have the possibility to explore and experiment there. The objective is to understand chemical coherences and to gain first basic knowledge– for an overall interest in natural sciences.
