Bayer 04 donates €2,500 to Leverkusen Women's Helpline

The 1,193 spectators who attended the Ulrich-Haberland-Stadion for the Werkself's 2-2 draw at home to Eintracht Frankfurt on Matchday 2 of the Google Pixel Women's Bundesliga also supported a good cause. As part of the DFB's 'Together: Good Game' action day on the theme of sustainability, Bayer 04 donated two euros from every ticket sold to the Leverkusen Women's Helpline.

The counselling centre, which has been in existence since 1986, is aimed at girls and women who have experienced sexual assault of any kind, as well as their relatives, partners, friends and professionals in the psychosocial and educational fields. The Women's Helpline's services are free of charge and can also be used anonymously. At Leverkusen's home game against Eintracht, the emergency helpline was represented with its own information stand in the stadium concourse. 

With the donation, which was rounded up to a total of €2,500, the works club is joining the joint campaign of clubs in the 3. Liga and Women's Bundesliga for social engagement, responsible corporate governance and the protection of the planet.

Bayer 04 also cooperates closely with the Leverkusen Women's Helpline beyond the sustainability matchday: Together with the club, Fan Liaison team and Fanprojekt Leverkusen e.V., the works club introduced the ‘Luisa is here’ support programme in February 2023, which is primarily aimed at people affected by sexual harassment in the stadium on matchdays, but also serves as a point of contact for other forms of violence and discrimination.
