Montblanc went to work with UNICEF and produced a large collection of products to support children deprived of their educational rights. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of products will be delivered to children in need in primary schools.
Montblanc and UNICEF ??have been working together since 2004. The two brands that meet for a common purpose are aiming for more with the UNICEF ??Collection introduced this year. MontBlanc, which has contributed up to $ 10 million by this time, helped launch four different programs around the world.
Between April 1, 2017 and March 31, 2018, a portion of the proceeds from the sales will be transferred to UNICEF. MontBlanc also states that the minimum benefit will be 1.5 million US dollars.
Offering a wide range of products, the collection is especially prominent with pens and leather goods. In addition to this, the collection, which features various products like timepieces, cuff links and notebooks, aims to raise awareness through the social responsibility project that it serves.
As I mentioned at the beginning of my article, pens are the strongest items in the collection. There is a common feature of the models which have various versions such as ballpoint pen, fountain pen and roller; a piece of writing. The symbols engraved to the pens are inspired by the granite stone found by a French soldier during an excavation for a castle in Egypt. The writings that have been engraved on the stone featured in three different languages as Demotic, Hieroglyphic and Ancient Greek.
