In 2018, 1% of companies in France implement ARRONDI, and Maisons du Monde is one of them! For this new edition, all the partners were able to celebrate the 20 million micro-donations made since the start-up began operating!
microDON is a Social and Solidarity Economy start-up that develops innovative solutions to facilitate and promote social commitment. The solutions are designed to encourage and enable everyone to be an actor of change easily and at their own level.
The ARRONDI round-up at the register program lets us tell our customers about the associations supported by the Maisons du Monde Foundation, and they can make their purchases meaningful by donating to forest conservation and wood re-use projects.
In 2017, the generosity of our customers earned us the prize for the best store participation rate in 2017 with 56% participation. More than one customer out of two rounded up their purchases by a few cents. We thank the store employees for their dedication and the customers for their generous participation: this prize rewards a community giving initiative!
In 2018, another four projects were selected by the employees to be supported by ARRONDI for three to four months each, headed by the NGOs Envol Vert, Ishpingo, Tchendukua and AICO.
