Changing the world for the better isn’t just a state of mind, it’s about actions. We want all our actions to have a positive impact. Every year we choose collaborations that have that impact.
We have collaborated with Shadeshares, a company that puts their heart and soul, and expertise into ’making good’. Shadeshare makes beautiful wooden sunglasses that aim to have a bigger positive impact than just sun protection.
The company was established by Finnish technology entrepreneur, Jan-Erik Westergård, and his Kenyan wife Veronica who strived to improve the lives in Kenyan slums by education and work. 30% of the sunglasses’ sales price is channeled to do good: 20% of every pair sold is directly spent on supporting the professional education and employment of young people living in the Kenia and 10% of the sunglasses’ sale price is donated to Finnish charities. We chose to support Icehearts. Icehearts is an organization that prevents young people’s social exclusion, enhances social skills and promotes well-being using team sports. They also provide consistent long-term support for vulnerable children in Finland.
