Joy of diversity – Finnish Design Shop donates 10,000 euros to Helsinki Pride

Finnish Design Shop is proud to be an official partner of Helsinki Pride for the fifth consecutive year.

Finnish Design Shop demonstrates its support for the Helsinki Pride community by donating 10,000 euros to the organization. This partnership for equality and human rights has been ongoing for five years.

THE PRIDE MONTH is celebrated globally throughout June. In Finland, the month culminates in Helsinki Pride Week during 24–30 June 2024. Finnish Design Shop is proud to once again be the official Support Partner of Helsinki Pride. The collaboration is natural, as equality, human rights, and inclusivity in the workplace are values that Finnish Design Shop holds dear and will not compromise.

The collaboration is an important part of Finnish Design Shop's sustainability strategy.

Responsibility is a core value in Finnish Design Shop's operations. Sustainability work is divided into three areas: Flow, which refers to circular economy solutions and sustainable logistics, Fix, which involves responsible product curation and our role in enabling sustainable product choices, and Flourish, which relates to the wellbeing of Finnish Design Shop personnel and the promotion of efforts that correspond to our values, both within the field of design and the society at large. This also includes collaboration with Helsinki Pride.

Finnish Design Shop donates 10,000 euros, supporting valuable human rights work.

As an official Support Partner, Finnish Design Shop is donating 10,000 euros to the Helsinki Pride community. By supporting Helsinki Pride, Finnish Design Shop aims to promote non-discrimination and equality, as well as support the rainbow community and the work for human rights.

Finnish Design Shop wishes everyone a happy, colorful, and unique Pride Week!
