Charitable Objectives

Ansvar originates from the Swedish temperance movement and ever since has been committed to reducing community problems such as the abuse of drugs and alcohol.

Ansvar recognises the growing problem of drug and alcohol abuse from individual tragedies to the growing social and economic costs for society. In view of these problems, Ansvar’s principles lead the company to take an active approach to its ethical stance by supporting charities that attempt to prevent drug and alcohol abuse helping to safeguard communities.
