At PILGRIM, we have chosen to place primary support on projects selected for their involvement in charity. We support these projects through our products.

We've also chosen to extend financial support to sports, children and youth, and culture, as well as charities within the local area of Skanderborg, Denmark where PILGRIM head office is located.
Our sponsorship work is within the following areas:

- We design a product that we help market and sell to benefit charity. We currently
  collaborate with MSF (Doctors without Borders).
- We extend financial support to children and youth, sport and culture in the local area
  of Skanderborg, Denmark.
- We donate products to events that support charity purposes. 
- We design a product specifically for organisations which take care of the selling and
  marketing of it.

In addition to these sponsorships, we also have a PILGRIM Foundation.

PILGRIM does not support individuals – only recurring events or established associations able to prove that the funds are sent to charity.
PILGRIM does not provide financial support (excluding the above mentioned), but only supports via products.




SPONSORSHIP CASES


KIRKENS KORSHÆR  (collaboration since 2006)

Kirkens Korshær (The Church Army, a private social service organization) got in touch with PILGRIM to hear whether we’d design and produce an item of jewellery for them. They wanted to sell it before Christmas to benefit the organisation’s users, many of whom are addicts and homeless.

The sale was a roaring success and the next year Kirkens Korshær sold a new, specially designed jewellery item from PILGRIM – again just before Christmas. Kirkens Korshær takes care of the marketing and selling of this jewellery and they receive the entire profit from the sale. This collaboration began through one of our collaboration partners who is a Kirkens Korshær volunteer.
