Supporting the Morbus Perthes Initiative

P. HENKEL GmbH is once again supporting the private self-help organisation “Morbus Perthes Initiative” this year. Perthes’ disease is a skeletal disease that affects the joints in a child’s hip that are needed for walking. Among other things, DMPI supports affected children with its “BENNI” project. BENNI is a cuddly bear that also suffered from Perthes’ disease and has now overcome his condition. He gives the children courage and hope. If you would like to support this project as well, you can become a sponsor or simply buy a BENNI and give it to someone as a gift.
