      Hugos Stiftelse & Glädjeruset

             Children and young people with disabilities are a group that
             is often physically inactive and may struggle to find activities
             adapted to them. To address this issue, Hugos Stiftelse raises
             funds to support associations and organisations that work to
             promote a more active and healthier life for children and youth
             with disabilities. Funds are raised through events such as
             Glädjeruset, a running event that allows everyone to parti-
             cipate in their own way.

                In 2024, we celebrated the 10th anniversary of Glädje-
             ruset by organising ten races of various distances, including
             at schools and daily activities. Once again, we set a record for
             participation. We also celebrated that the Hugoloppet project,
             which aims to inspire joy in movement at adapted primary and
             secondary schools, has surpassed last year’s numbers. Over
             70 schools and 3,000 students have participated in 2024. Our
             foundation has also continued to award scholarships, inclu-
             ding to RBU (The Swedish National Association for Disabled
             Children and Young People) and Hjälteföreningen.

      Bitprop

             Bitprop combines entrepreneurship, financial and social inno-
             vation to develop affordable, high-quality sustainable housing
             in South Africa’s townships. Bitprop partners with township
             homeowners to develop four or six rental flats on their prop-
             erty. The homeowner leases Bitprop their land, and Bitprop
             provides its expertise and support to enable construction
             in three months. The rent generated by these rental flats is
             distributed from the first month, with the homeowner receiv-
             ing 15 percent of the gross monthly rental collected during
             the 10-year partnership. After 10 years, Bitprop steps out of
             the picture and 100 percent of the rental income goes to the
             homeowner. The homeowner always retains full ownership
             of the property and the flats. During the partnership period,
             Bitprop uses its share of the rental income to recoup invested
             capital and provide a market-related return to investors,
             creating a sustainable investment model. bitprop.com
