CSR

We have worked closely with our Indian suppliers for many years, and since 2021 we have wanted to give something back to a population in need. When we heard about the Empowerment project, we knew it was an obvious initiative for us to support.

The project provides Indian women with the opportunity to take tailor-made training that ensures economic and social security for themselves and their families. In addition, courses are offered in mindfulness, self-esteem, health, entrepreneurship and women's rights, which empower women to deal with abuse and oppression. Home visits are also provided to ensure safety and support.

LittleBigHelp was founded in 2010 by Lisbeth Johansen, who has since worked in slums in Kolkata and Howrah. They have established several skill development centers for women, helping to break the cycle of poverty. We are proud to support their work and contribute to a
brighter future for the people who need help the most.

We are proud sponsors of the Danish Hospital Clowns, who bring joy and support to hospitalized children and their families every day. Their work strengthens the children's joy of life and courage, which makes it easier for them to cope with their illness. We never had any doubts about supporting the Danish Hospital Clowns and their work to bring light and hope to all children and young people, regardless of diagnosis.

Through their visits to the hospitals, they create moments of joy and togetherness that make a big difference in children's everyday lives. We are happy to be part of this meaningful initiative and help bring smiles to children's faces during difficult times.

We are proud to contribute to an important cause that touches the lives of many people. Through our support, we hope to raise awareness, raise funds for research and help those affected by the disease. We stand together for a future without cancer!
