JYSK has donated $100,000 to Special Olympics Canada, part of its ongoing support of the sport organization that serves individuals with an intellectual disability. Since 2008, JYSK Canada has donated over $1 million in support of individuals with intellectual disabilities and their families.

“JYSK has a long and proud tradition of partnering with Special Olympics in Canada and around the globe,” said JYSK Canada CEO Ludvik G. Kristjansson.

As an organization, we have an opportunity to make a difference in their lives and we remain dedicated to supporting individuals with intellectual disabilities through sport.”

JYSK Canada has been a member of the Special Olympics Canada community since 2006, when it became a national partner. The $100k donation, which has been an annual tradition for JYSK Canada since 2008, will go towards supporting 49,600 athletes with an intellectual disability across Canada.

“We are so grateful that we can count on long-time national partners like JYSK even during this challenging time,” said Sharon Bollenbach, Special Olympics Canada CEO.

DANISH HOME RETAILER JYSK OPENS FLAGSHIP STORE IN CALGARY, PLANS FUTURE INVESTMENTS IN ALBERTA MARKET

CALGARY, AB - OCTOBER 25, 2020 – Danish home retailer JYSK is opening its Calgary flagship store, the first in a series of future investments in the Alberta market.

Located near Sunridge Mall in the city’s northeast quadrant, the global retailer’s new, 36,726 sq. ft. space will feature a large selection of JYSK’s accessible and stylish Scandinavian home décor and furnishings.

While retail expansion might seem like a bold move during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the store opening comes at a time when more Canadians than ever are working and spending their leisure time at home.

Explains Eythor Tryggvason, JYSK’s Alberta District Manager: “Now, more than ever, Canadians are recognizing the importance of investing in the places where they live. Our new Sunridge location will provide Calgary residents with great offers for their homes and an in-store shopping experience that’s safe, clean, and distinctly Scandinavian.”

According to Tryggvason, the Sunridge location is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to investing in Alberta. As part of JYSK’s expansion strategy, further investments in the province – and more store openings – are being planned.

“As a Calgarian, it’s a great feeling to be able to open a new store and provide jobs during difficult times,” says Tryggvason. “Growth is a key part of JYSK’s DNA globally, and we truly believe that the sky’s the limit for our company in Canada, especially in Alberta. This is just the first step in our growth plan for Alberta and we remain committed to investing in the province for years to come.”

The grand opening of the JYSK Sunridge location will take place on Tuesday, October 27th, 2020, with COVID-19 measures in place for the health and safety of customers.

SPECIAL OLYMPICS CANADA'S 50th ANNIVERSARY

“We are very proud of the enduring relationship between Special Olympics Canada and JYSK Canada,” noted Special Olympics Canada CEO, Sharon Bollenbach. “JYSK Canada has been a strong advocate for Special Olympics in Canada and continues to demonstrate their incredible support through their in-store fundraising. We are extremely grateful to JYSK Canada and look forward to another successful year of partnership!”

Since 1968, Special Olympics has been changing attitudes about the abilities of people with intellectual disabilities. From June 2018 to July 2019, Special Olympics as a movement will be celebrating 50 years of inclusion and acceptance. Since its inception, as a backyard camp run by Eunice Kennedy Shriver, the movement has grown into a global force with over 4.5 million athletes, over 45,000 of those in Canada alone.

The Special Olympics movement has a uniquely Canadian connection through the ground breaking work of Dr. Frank Hayden. His 1960’s research studying the effects of regular exercise on children with an intellectual disability caught the attention of Eunice Kennedy Shriver, who invited Dr. Hayden and a team from Toronto’s Beverley School to take part in the inaugural Special Olympics competition in 1968. Dr. Hayden then served as Director of Physical Education and Recreation for the Kennedy Foundation and later was the Director of Special Olympics’ Office of International Development. Dr. Hayden and his work played a critical role in the creation and growth of Special Olympics as an international movement.

Since its inception, the Special Olympics movement has been changing lives through the transformative power of sport. Heading into its 50th year, the movement looks to the future to continue supporting individuals with intellectual disabilities and their families. Special Olympics could not and would not be the global force that it is without sponsors and partners like JYSK, who continue to help spread the message of inclusion and acceptance far and wide. Thank you JYSK for supporting Special Olympics and allowing more athletes across the country participate in the transformative power of sport.
