250.000 kr. i donation til sygdomsramte børn i Danmark

250,000 DKK donation to children affected by illness in Denmark

January 2023

Our Journey

In Christmas 2022, we set ourselves an ambitious goal. We wanted to raise 250,000 DKK for children affected by illness and those in need in Denmark.

We succeeded!

The donation has now been handed over to the non-profit children's foundation CoolUnite, which works to improve the quality of life for vulnerable and sick children and their families. This is achieved through experiences, community, and developmental initiatives.

On behalf of the entire Team BARONS and CoolUnite, we would like to say a big thank you to everyone who shared, donated, or supported the collection in any way.

 

The donation goes to the following projects

CoolUnite support projects

CoolUnite works hard to make a difference for the children who need it the most.

In their work, they focus on supporting, developing, and empowering these children affected by illness and those in need, as well as providing them with experiences that can give them a break from a sometimes harsh and challenging daily life.

They particularly focus on the following support projects:

  • The two children's and youth hospices in Denmark (Lukashuset and Strandbakkehuset)
  • Ønskelands Pausehus (a place for families with chronically and seriously ill children)
  • Barnets Blå Hus (for children of substance abusers)
  • Børnehuset SIV (institution for children with weakened immune systems).

You can see more examples and read more about CoolUnite's larger support projects here.

About White Month 2022 – In collaboration with CoolUnite

This Christmas, we raised funds for children in need in Denmark in collaboration with CoolUnite. We called it White Month.

We donated 200 DKK for each sold The Founder Mini shirt and also donated 20 DKK for each order during the period to CoolUnite.

We still have a few The Founder Mini in stock if you want to delight the junior at home with a mini shirt.
