DROPP is Hanken’s First Non-Profit Partner

Hanken gets its first Non-profit Partner as collaboration is initiated with DROPP. The new partner category has been created to enable and highlight long-term cooperation with non-profit organisations.

The first tangible collaboration between DROPP and Hanken will happen during the CR3+ conference “Making Corporate Responsibility Useful” taking place at Hanken on 28-29 April. During the next academic year, DROPP will be included as a case company in the course Introduction to Corporate Responsibility. DROPP will also appear in Hanken’s partner activities, both through brand exposure and through presence at different events.

- We are proud of having been chosen as Hanken’s first Non-profit Partner, says Amanda Sundell, founder of DROPP. – I hope that together, we can highlight the opportunities to influence that social enterprises have. We are looking forward to sharing our experiences and knowledge with other partners and learning from them at the same time.

DROPP is a Finnish social enterprise founded by Amanda Sundell in 2014. DROPP offers domestic and sustainable spring water for Finnish consumers and donates 100 % of its profits to support the rehabilitation of the Baltic Sea through the work of the Baltic Sea Action Group.

- Instituting a new partner category for non-profit organisations is a natural continuation of Hanken’s choice to promote social responsibility in all our activities. We are happy that DROPP, who supports the very important work of protecting the Baltic Sea, is our first Non-profit Partner, says Nina Olin, Hanken’s Director of External Relations and Communication at Hanken.
