In November 2023, all customers in our shopping centres can support a good cause in the app with their PLUS+ points. There are three good projects to choose from, each representing an area in need of Christmas donations. You can vote by donating PLUS+ points to the organization that is closest to your heart.
DSC will donate DKK 75,000 to the organization with the most points, DKK 50,000 to the second-place, and DKK 25,000 to the third-place.
Make it a Merry Christmas for everyone!
Info about the three good causes
Julegaveregn
Julegaveregn is a private initiative that for more than a decade has been raising funds to secure Christmas presents for children at need. Christmas means an abundance of everything most people take for granted. Not just the tangible, but also joy, family cosiness, care and being together. Christmas presents are a powerful symbol of the community and care for each other.
The presents go to children placed in residential care and to children placed outside the home for a significant period of time. All donations go towards Christmas presents.

Joannahuset
Denmark's only youth crisis centre. Too many children and young people who are victims of abuse and neglect are forced to stay at home with their parents or where they are placed, because they do not know where to go or where to stay. That's why we in 2020 opened Joannahuset, where children and young people in need of help can call us 24/7 or come in person to receive care, counselling, legal aid and shelter.
A large part of Joannahuset's funding comes from private donations from foundations and companies. These private donations are essential for Joannahuset to be open for children and young people 24 hours a day, all year round, now and in the future.

EventyrJul
Every year since 2009, EventyrJul has brought together around 250 socially disadvantaged children and their parents for an unforgettable Christmas Eve event. On the day of Christmas Eve, we set the table for Christmas dinner, decorate the impressive Christmas tree, fill candy bowls and make sure the children's personalised Christmas presents are ready to be unwrapped. The children also get to choose a gift for their parents. If you donate points to EventyrJul, they will go towards giving children an adventurous day where they can forget the challenges of everyday life, boost their self-confidence and let the joy of Christmas take over.
