At Retro Lángos Budapest, we are committed to actively contributing to the development of our community and improving society. We are not shy about this commitment: in addition to formalizing this activity in a separate declaration, we support disadvantaged and underprivileged children, as well as various families and organizations, both financially and with programs, gifts, and in what we are the best: numerous lángos.
The Added Value of Our Colleagues
#bestteam
To help others, it’s important that we recognize how important it is and show this in our daily attitudes and actions. We motivate our colleagues accordingly:
- We encourage all our employees to participate in social responsibility programs and events.
- Volunteering: We encourage colleagues to volunteer and assist the work of supported organizations.
- Awareness and Communication: We believe it is important that everyone understands the company’s social responsibility guidelines and keeps these in mind during their daily work.
Who We Support
Children
We particularly support programs and organizations that serve the development of children and young people.
Disadvantaged Families
We support institutions and initiatives aimed at helping disadvantaged children and families.
People with Disabilities
We support individuals with disabilities and the organizations that help them in their daily lives.
Supported Organizations
We take pride in our traditional restaurant, not just for our delicious lángos, but also for our approach to actively participating in our community and supporting future generations. We believe that a company should aim for more than just business success; it should also give back to its communities and society. With this commitment, we continue to engage in activities that improve our surroundings.
Lívia Néni’s Camps
Every year, we support Lívia Néni’s camps, which provide unique experiences and learning opportunities for children. These camps help kids with their social and emotional development and create lifelong memories. We contribute financially and through volunteer work, preparing hundreds of delicious lángos and pancakes for the kids each summer.
Who are the Camps for?
For nine years, Lívia Néni’s camps have been hosting children with autism spectrum disorder, special educational needs (SEN), and those from disadvantaged backgrounds. This year, we need even more support.
Types of Camps
Initially, there were Drama and Animal Lover camps welcoming all children. Five years ago, the focus shifted to organizing Experience and Adventure Camps specifically for SEN children. This idea came from Lea and Lívia, who both taught SEN children in special schools for years. These children have very limited opportunities to attend camps, as many are unwilling or unable to take on the responsibility.
Affordable Summer Camps
For the fourth year, the “Affordable Summer Camps” program runs for seven weeks, where parents can register their children for just 105,000 HUF.
Who Helps?
This program is mainly supported by a few generous donors. The Víg Kalmár Restaurant was one of the first to join as a supporter. Thanks to them, children at the camp enjoy delicious stews every week, which is a significant experience for them. Other supporters have since joined, providing food, programs, or substantial discounts that make these opportunities possible for the children.
Common Successes
It’s incredible to be part of so many children’s development, sharing in their successes, big and small. While it requires significant effort from everyone, even the smallest success makes it all worthwhile.
Cseppkő Children's Home
Supporting the children living in Cseppkő Children’s Home is close to our hearts. This home provides a safe haven for children who cannot live with their families for various reasons. The goal is to nurture and support them in a loving environment until they can return to their families or be adopted. We bring joy to these children with lángos parties and gift programs during the holidays.
Hungarian Red Cross
We support the Hungarian Red Cross employees year after year, recognizing their outstanding help and support for people in need. We provide gift vouchers to the Red Cross staff, supporting and appreciating their efforts.
Adom ("I give it") Foundation
At Retro Lángos Budapest, we highly value social responsibility, and we are proud to support the Adom Foundation with an annual contribution of 1,200,000 HUF. The foundation is dedicated to promoting equal opportunities for young people and improving the quality of life for underprivileged and vulnerable children and families.
Our collaboration aims to contribute to long-term programs that support children’s education, development, and well-being. We believe that even small steps can lead to a brighter and more equitable future.
