Loimu’s Christmas donation to Save the Children Finland 

Currently, about 120,000 children in Finland live in low-income families, and the number is estimated to grow by nearly 30,000. Last year, Save the Children’s assistance reached more than 75,000 children in Finland. With the help of donations, Save the Children provides food aid and support for hobbies. In addition, children in families facing challenging life situations are offered, among other things, mentors, foster homes, and online counseling. For example, last year nearly 14,500 children received food aid. 

“I worry about whether we’ll have food and about the fact that sometimes my parents’ account has less than 10 euros.”

Loimu wants to help children in low-income families and prevent youth social exclusion in Finland. Instead of sending Christmas cards to our partners, we have donated the funds reserved for cards to charity – again this year to Save the Children Finland’s domestic work. 

We wish all our members and partners a warm Christmas spirit! 

Save the Children Finland is a politically and religiously independent NGO founded in 1922, which promotes the realization of children’s rights in Finland and worldwide. Save the Children Finland’s activities are guided by national legislation and the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, whose core principles form the organization’s value base. Read more: Save the Children Finland
