Faktum
Faktum is a Gothenburg-based magazine sold by homeless people and others who live in social exclusion.

The content of the magazine is mainly devoted to various social issues and highlights homelessness and social exclusion.
Barncancerfonden
The Swedish Childhood Cancer Fund, Barncancerfonden works to combat childhood cancer and ensure the sufferers and their families receive the care and support that they need. The fund focuses on raising money for childhood cancer research and support for the around 300 families who receive a cancer diagnosis each year.
