Luvian Saha Oy supports young athletes on their path towards their goals

Luvian Saha Oy supports young people by enabling different opportunities for sports and physical activities and improving access to them. This support particularly focuses on team sports for children and young people, with the company sponsoring close to ten teams or clubs in its operating area every year. Sponsored sports range from pesäpallo (Finnish baseball) and football to ice hockey, floorball and athletics. Most recently, the company started to support the construction of a local disc golf course.

As a company, it is important to us to support the sports opportunities of children and young people, in particular. The importance of physical exercise and maintaining a good physical condition are emphasised in the modern world. Sponsoring team sports and, therefore, having an impact on sports conditions concern a very large group of children, young people and their families every year. By offering various support, we can have an impact on at least 200 sports enthusiasts and athletes annually”, says Antti-Matti Kivelä, domestic sales manager of Luvian Saha. “Unfortunately, we cannot give a positive response to all support applications, as we receive dozens of them every year. It is important to us that the team or athlete sponsored is local and that the values and principles of the sponsored activity and our operations are as close to a perfect match as possible”, Kivelä says..
