Following
the terrorist attacks in the United States on September 11, 2001
Bayer contributed financial and material support for the relief
operations in New York, Washington, D. C. and Pennsylvania. The
company donated one million dollars, along with numerous products,
material items and firefighting equipment and supplies, to selected
relief organizations.
Shortly after the disasters, Bayer Management Board Chairman Dr.
Manfred Schneider expressed condolences to U.S. President George
W. Bush and the 23,200 employees of the U.S. subsidiary Bayer Corporation.
In addition, Bayer also promised the U.S. authorities a donation
of four million Ciprobay® tablets to combat the acute threat
of anthrax. The tablets are intended for postal workers and for
emergency and rescue services.
