Susan Bijl Donation Campaign

A wonderful gesture from a great creative inspiration from our city. Every sale donates Susan Bijl This month, 20% of the profits will be donated to the Rotterdam Youth Fund for Sports and Culture.

Susan Bijl and her partner Vincent van Duin, along with their three children, know better than anyone how important sport and culture are for a child's development.

In an environment outside of school, children can broaden their horizons, make new friends, gain inspiration and discover their talents at a club.

 

About Susan Bijl

Susan Bijl graduated from the Willem de Kooning Academy in 2000 with "The New Shopping Bag": a sustainable shopping bag to replace plastic bags. More than 23 years later, the range has expanded considerably. Every year, with new themes and surprising color combinations. And always produced in small quantities.

The colorful bags have become a fixture on Rotterdam's streets. However, their mission remains unchanged: reducing waste in a colorful way with an ethical and functional product, produced as responsibly as possible.

The bags are sold in nearly 120 stores in the Netherlands. In 2004, Susan Bijl began selling in Japan. Since then, the stores have expanded further across Europe, with points of sale also opening in Taiwan, Singapore, and New York.
