A Night for UNICEF

Last Monday the golf tournament Operakällaren Trophy was held to raise money for Unicef's work in Eastern Africa. The evening that was arranged by Micael Bindefeldt was very successful and many people contributed with wonderful donations. Select Collection gave a trip and a duo massage at our beautiful spa. It raised 25 000 SEK to Unicef! All in all this charity event raised 2,4 Million SEK which is a great contribution in this time of need.

I had a nice chat with Jan Eliasson, whom I admire and who today is doing a great job for the Water Aid Project. Jan is a lovely person with lots of compassion for life.


He had an exciting career - His track record is as tall as impressive. Foreign Minister, chairman of the UN General Assembly, Sweden's Ambassador in Washington DC, State Secretary at the Foreign Ministry, Assistant Secretary General of the United Nations, UN Secretary General's personal representative in the Iran-Iraq conflict, to name a few.
