BRANDE – Danish fashion company Bestseller and its charitable foundation have donated around DK5 million (US$715,000) to support vulnerable communities in key production countries.
The money will be apportioned across Bangladesh, China, India, Myanmar, Cambodia, Turkey and Pakistan, with the latter still recovering from the impacts of catastrophic floods which swept through the country this summer.
“A quick glance at the list of projects clearly shows that there are many places to put your efforts when you wish to improve people’s living conditions. Therefore, this year we are allocating the funds to several projects to make a difference for more people,” said Jannek Egerrup-Hagen, director of the Bestseller Foundation.
