Information about events and activities
supported in various areas:
Health protection
and promotion
The main assistance project for the University Children's Hospital in Košice was the donation of a whole-body ultra-sound machine with accessories, 45 PC sets and three printers, all intended for speeding up and improving the quality of diagnostics for children.
The USSK Foundation purchased the equipment having contributed the sum of 36 790.51 EUR and combined this with the proceeds of voluntary fundraising among USSK employees (36 791.24 EUR) also matched by a contribution from the company U. S. Steel Košice (36 791.24 EUR). USSK subsidiary OBAL - SERVIS, a.s. also supported this good cause with the sum of 1 505 EUR. The gift with a total value of 111 877.99 EUR was presented at the beginning of 2015 for the early benefit of the hospital doctors and their little patients.
Danielko was one of the first
patients who underwent medical
examination by means of
the ultrasound machine, carried out
by the pediatric cardiologist
Dr. Marta Herichová.
We support talented
students of U. S. Steel
employees
Education and
educational system
Scholarship Program
This is intended for supporting the higher education studies of talented children of U. S. Steel employees as well as talented students from socially disadvantaged backgrounds studying at technical colleges and universities. The program promotes students who, in addition to their studies, are engaged in various social support activities, and at the same time this motivates high school students to achieve better study results, since their inclusion in the program also depends on their achievements.
Social and
humanitarian aid
The Foundation has helped the St. Klement Hofbauer Foster Home in Podolínec to improve its care for the boys and girls through public fund-raising based on the second edition of a special USSK Family Cookbook, full of well-tested Slovak and American recipes for various dishes. Proceeds from the collection will be used by the Foster Home to purchase and reconstruct a small house to provide temporary accommodation for young adults whose constitutional care rights have expired.

Hofbauer Foster
Home in Podolínec.
The project with a long tradition in this area is the "Wishing Tree" project, which tries to fulfill the wishes of children in foster homes as well as families of employees of U. S. Steel Košice, who find themselves in a difficult situation - a long-term illness or death of a parent.
The Foundation has also supported two Half-Way Homes for the first time - in Košice and in Prešov, where young adults, former children in care of a foster home, can take refuge.
Support for children
whose families do not
have sufficient funds
to finance their sports
activities.
Physical culture
and sport
In this area the Foundation mainly works with the grant program named Your chance to play.
The program focuses on supporting children whose families do not have sufficient funds to finance their sports activities. In the school year 2014/2015 we also gave more opportunities to young talented sporting people from among the children of employees of U. S. Steel Košice and its subsidiaries, namely in the selected team sports of ice-hockey, basketball and soccer, and other sports on an individual basis.
The projects supported by the Foundation also traditionally include the International Indoor Football Tournament for Deaf Children Under 17 years in Prešov, which is the only one in the world devoted to this category of disabled footballers at a national level.
