Synergy of health, safety and humanity

Under the slogan “That every day is healthy and safe”, Tigar Tires organized the Family Health and Safety Day for the fourth time. This, in many ways, was a unique event aimed at promoting traffic safety, a safe and healthy lifestyle, including the importance of increased prevention and health screening, as well as environmental concerns.

The Tigar Tires celebration of health and safety celebrated close to 6,000 visitors.

One of the central activities was the Walk of Goodness. 1,500 participants took part in the walk, which together with the drivers of stationary bicycles crossed a total of 2,853 km. In an effort to support a responsible approach to health and at the same time doing something beneficial for the community in which it operates, the company has specifically evaluated each departed kilogram and will donate a total of one million dinars for humanitarian purposes. The funds are intended for the construction of a modern and safe children’s playground in the kindergarten Lane Preschool institution Čika Jova Zmaj. In addition to this donation, Tigar Tires will also finance three primary school projects from Pirot and Babušnica, which collected the largest number of visitors: Save Your Planet, Plant Your Tree and Green Classroom.
