Kista Galleria is at the heart of the community, where our visitors live, work, and thrive. Our local CSR work is incredibly important to us and includes engagement in organizations and activities that promote health, safety, well-being, and welfare in the local area. As part of this, we have chosen to support Kistaloppet and Sommar på torget. We support them in various ways, including by informing and highlighting their operations through screens in the mall, on our social media channels and on our website, as well as by giving them space in the mall to inform about their activities themselves.
Sommar på torget
Sommar på torget is an initiative that Kista Galleria runs together with the Swedish Church, Kista träff, Rinkeby-Kista District Administration, Muslim Aid, Save the Children, Fryshuset, and Shanta basket.
We want to contribute to increased safety and togetherness by engaging children and youth during the summer break. During three weeks in June, children have the opportunity to try out various sports and activities at Kista square.
Kistaloppet
We believe it is important that everyone has the right to exercise and physical activity. That is why we are proud sponsors of Kistaloppet, which is completely free for all ages. The race goes through our mall and we offer activities and music throughout the day. The initiative is part of Löparakademin’s campaign #RUN4ZERO, which works to ensure everyone has the opportunity to exercise and live a healthy life, regardless of their circumstances.
