Developer with a heart of gold

“A crisis does not absolve us from responsibility,” – this was the conclusion of Michał Kołodziejczyk, the president of the Łódź-based Tom-Bud Developer, who bought a gold heart for PLN 1 mln during the 17th grand finalé of the Wielka Orkiestra Świątecznej Pomocy children’s charity event that was held in early January. This is now the third heart that has been bought by the developer. This foundation (Jurek Owsiak is one of the founders) has been raising money for medical equipment for children’s hospitals and clinics throughout Poland since 1993. 
In the seventeen years since it was founded, it has raised over USD 100 mln.   The money Tom-Bud donated to the Orkiestra this year could buy 204 sqm of apartment space in the estate currently being developed by the company on ul. Obywatelska in Łódź. Alternatively, the money could be spent on several ultrasound scanners or one CAT scanner
