A Day for Majblomman

Help us make a difference!

Grand Samarkand is supporting Majblomman—a day when every visit counts!

Every year, thousands of children sell May flowers to help other children living in financial hardship. They do so with dedication, courage, and a desire to help. These children are making a difference. We are inspired by them and follow their example.
There are just over 20,000 children in the municipality of Växjö, about 3,000 of whom live in poverty. Every year, Majblomman Växjö provides financial assistance so that these children can get a warm jacket, soccer cleats, a bus pass, or a bicycle. When you buy a Mayflower, you help Majblomman support even more children.

On April 18, the focus at Grand Samarkand will be on children. For every visit, we’ll donate 5 kr to Majblomman. Come meet the participants and take part in activities for the whole family, buy your Majblomman flowers on-site, and help us make a difference!
