Eco Fund: Fraport AG Contributes EUR 1.25 million in 2002 for Environmental Projects in the Frankfurt/Rhine-Main Region

Frankfurt, Germany (OTS) - Despite the international aviation
industry`s difficult economic situation, Fraport AG contributed about
EUR 1.25 million from corporate operating results to its eco fund in
2002. The Fraport Eco Fund helps support a large number of nature and
environmental projects in the Frankfurt/Rhine-Main region. Since
1997, Fraport has donated some EUR 13 million for projects aimed at
protecting nature and the environment throughout the region. Fraport
AG donated funds for 32 projects in 2002. Thus, the total number of
projects supported in the Frankfurt Airport region has climbed to
over 200 since the Fraport Eco Fund was launched. Along with
traditional projects for nature and environmental protection, the
Fraport Eco Fund supports environmental education and eco research.
Specific projects that have benefited from the Fraport Eco Fund
include: reconverting schoolyards into natural spaces, the creation
of the Rhine-Main Regional Park system, expansion of a bird
sanctuary, maintenance of wild fruit orchards, and initiatives to
protect native bat and butterfly populations.
