This action has an additional support aspect - groceries are purchased from small rural producers, agricultural farms or cooperatives.
- By starting the Giving Friday initiative, just when material things are in the foreground, we wanted to give a new, philanthropic meaning to that day. This is a unique opportunity to show that we are there for each other, so that those who need help the most can feel the care and support of the whole society. That's why we invite all citizens to join our action by shopping in dm drugstores or through the dm online store, and thus provide a contribution in donating to the most vulnerable - said Svetlana Jovanovic Mitic, dm Marketing Manager for Serbia and North Macedonia.
Through Giving Friday, dm has so far donated RSD 10.5 million to the kitchens of the Serbian Red Cross.
