Trading Charity on 5 December 2025

Act and help – Under this motto, the joint trading charity initiative of Deutsche Börse and the specialists at Deutsche Börse Frankfurt will take place again this year on Friday, 5 December 2025.

And every trade counts!

For every order executed on Deutsche Börse Frankfurt on this day, Deutsche Börse and the specialists will donate the fees to:

  • Die Arche
  • Ambulanter Kinder- und Jugendhospizdienst Frankfurt/Rhein-Main (DKHV e.V.)
  • Kinderhospiz Bärenherz Wiesbaden
  • Frankfurter Kältebus e.V.

How can you help?

Investors who trade stocks, ETFs, ETPs, or funds from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. and bonds from 8:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on 5 December at the Deutsche Börse Frankfurt trading venue will be supporting these organizations, which help people and ensure that they receive the necessary support and care.

We support the following organizations

The Christian children's and youth organization “Die Arche” was founded in Berlin in 1995 by Pastor Bernd Siggelkow. Today, Die Arche supports children and young people at more than 35 locations across Germany:

  • For greater equality of opportunity – regardless of social and cultural background
  • Against the material and emotional effects of child poverty

Children belong at the center of our society. We can only achieve this through joint commitment. That is why Die Arche works in a network with partners from social institutions and schools, as well as stakeholders from business and politics.

“Die Arche” Children's Foundation is a recognized foundation under civil law and its work is financed almost entirely by donations.

The Frankfurt/Rhine-Main Outpatient Children's and Youth Hospice Service (DKHV e.V.) supports children, adolescents, and young adults with life-shortening or life-threatening illnesses from the time of diagnosis, through dying, and beyond death. Qualified volunteers provide relief for the entire family in their home environment with the aim of supporting their quality of life.  

The Frankfurt/Rhine-Main Outpatient Children's and Youth Hospice Service has been supporting families for almost 20 years, and the service is free of charge for families. The service is mainly financed by donations.

For many families, the Bärenherz children's and youth hospice is a place where life and shared moments take center stage:
laughter, closeness, security—supported by professional medical and nursing care, educational guidance, and an open ear for all concerns. Every bit of support makes a difference! Because it ensures that families with seriously ill children and young people can make the most of their time together.

The Bärenherz Foundation has been an independent foundation under private law since 2003. It supports institutions that provide relief for families with children who are terminally ill and have a limited life expectancy. It currently supports the two Bärenherz children's hospices in Wiesbaden and Markkleeberg near Leipzig and also awards external grants. The majority of the funding comes from donations, endowments, bequests, and the proceeds from the foundation's capital. 

The Frankfurt Association for Social Housing's cold weather bus provides assistance to homeless people every night between October and May. In addition to transporting people to emergency shelters, the cold weather bus offers winter-proof sleeping bags and sleeping mats, thick wool blankets, and tarpaulins. The experienced staff know most of the homeless people and locations in Frankfurt. With a great deal of respect and sensitivity, they earn people's trust and are thus reliable points of contact. To ensure that no one is overlooked, the Cold Weather Bus also relies on reports from Frankfurt citizens.
