Euroflorist partners with UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency to Support Refugees Worldwide

From October 1st 2024 customers of Euroflorist have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact by donating to UNHCR’s life-saving initiatives during the checkout process. With every purchase of flowers on Euroflorist, customers can opt to contribute a small amount to UNHCR.

With over 120 million people displaced due to war, persecution, or disasters, UNHCR's efforts are more critical than ever. UNHCR protects people forced to flee their homes because of conflict and persecution. They save lives, protect rights and help build better futures. They work in over 130 countries, using their expertise to protect and care for millions.

UNHCR's Regional Manager Private Partnerships and Philanthropy (Europe) Olaf Tchongrack expressed his enthusiasm about the partnership: “We are so happy that Euroflorist offers the opportunity to donate to UNHCR’s crucial work in protecting people forced to flee. UNHCR delivers life-saving assistance like shelter, water and other basic necessities; helps safeguard fundamental human rights; and develops solutions that ensure people have a safe place to call home where they can build a better future.”

The organisation’s long-term strategies include supporting refugees’ integration into host communities, enhancing access to education and employment, and developing cash assistance systems.
By enabling customers to contribute through their purchase, Euroflorist is amplifying UNHCR’s impact. Magnus Silfverberg, the CEO of Euroflorist adds: “We are happy that such as small change as adding an additional donation option at checkout can have such a great effect for so many people worldwide. We encourage other companies to contact their local UNHCR representatives to discuss the possibility of adding a donation box to their sites.”
