Doctors without Borders - MSF
Since 2003
PILGRIM has supported the humanitarian organisation Médecins Sans
Frontières. Twice a year, PILGRIM designs and produces one or more
special MSF products, sold to benefit MSF. The entire profit from
the sale goes directly to Doctors without Borders and their
invaluable work.
This means that the retailers
who sell MSF products do not earn from the sale either.
Doctors without Borders is an independent humanitarian medical aid
agency committed to international emergency zones. As such, their
only means of financial aid is donations.
Since 2003, the sale of MSF products has generated € 1,386,659
(£ 1,107,189) to Doctors without Borders.

Helena on the
idea
"In the lucky bag, you'll find
three small charms and a cord. The three charms symbolise the
dawning of life, our origins and the spirit of community. Put the
charms on the cord. When the cord breaks one day, you will be
spreading your good wishes and hopes into the world like tiny
seeds."
Helena
Christensen
