Sampo's Christmas donation to support HelsinkiMissio
Sampo plc's yearly Christmas donation will be used to help families through
HelsinkiMissio's 'Save a Generation' project. The donated sum is EUR 10,000.
- As a result of our campaign, in just over a month we have been contacted by
more than 100 volunteers willing to help. In order to guarantee hundreds of new
support persons for families during this multi-year project, we require
continuous funding to recruit, train and guide volunteers. With this donation,
we will be able to block many of the paths that lead to the marginalization of
children, says Olli Valtonen, Managing Director of HelsinkiMissio.
HelsinkiMissio's 'Save a Generation' project sees a non-governmental
organization and the public sector join forces to prevent the marginalisation of
children. The goal is to prevent families' challenges from turning into problems
by harnessing the support offered by volunteers. HelsinkiMissio's partners in
the project are the City of Helsinki's Social Services Department, the Helsinki
Deaconess Institute and The Single Parents' Association.
- With its volunteers, HelsinkiMissio carries out significant work to prevent
marginalisation. Sampo wants to help out in these efforts by supporting
HelsinkiMissio's 'Save a Generation project', says Jarmo Salonen, Sampo's Head
of Investor Relations and Group Communications.
Sampo plc has traditionally donated the money reserved for Christmas gifts to
charitable organizations, in support of the work they carry out for the public
good.
