Danish
Hospital Clowns
In 2023, Frode Laursen employees
were given the option of forgoing their
company Christmas gift and instead
donating to Danish Hospital Clowns.
Many employees decided to do so, and
in December we gave DKK 130,000 to
Danish Hospital Clowns.
“It’s greatly appreciated. It means that
our hospital clowns can bring joy to even
more children when life in the hospital
becomes tough,” said Tania Dethlefsen,
CEO of Danish Hospital Clowns.
Wefood
In 2022, Frode Laursen entered into a partnership
with Wefood, which is part of DanChurchAid and sells
surplus food from its six stores in Danish cities. In
2023, we shipped 60 pallets of surplus food between
Zealand and Jutland.
Save the Children
Instead of giving Christmas chocolates to our customers, Frode Laursen decided in 2023 to donate to Save
the Children and thereby support the charity’s work
with children worldwide.
“Conflicts, catastrophes and climate change
impact children all over the world, and therefore we
have decided to donate to Save the Children, which
is there for children in need regardless of political
situation or geographical location,” said Frode
Laursen’s CEO, Thomas Corneliussen.
Local support
Frode Laursen also supports local causes, as we want
to do our bit in the local communities we are part of.
In 2023, we therefore supported, among others,
Jyderup swimming club, Åstorp football club,
Hadsten handball club and the installation of a
defibrillator in the town of Hørning. In total, local
donations amounted to almost DKK 113,000.
