More than a watch brand, August Berg strives to make a positive difference in the lives of others. With every watch sold, August Berg works with Human Practice Foundation to provide quality education to children in local communities in rural Africa.
Through August Berg, Anders Peter hopes to advocate Timefulness while giving back to society.
August Berg
In 2004, Anders Peter started Norbreeze Group with his partner Anne and introduced minimalist yet functional Scandinavian timepieces to Asia.
Since then, Norbreeze Group has successfully distributed and incubated numerous brands across Asia. This experience provides a deep understanding of Asian culture in addition to their understanding of their European heritage.
Next began a new chapter: The creation of August Berg – timepieces designed to inspire and remind us to make conscious choices with our time. This appreciation for the time we have – and what we choose to do with it – Anders Peter calls Timefulness.
244 million children won’t start the new school year
That’s nearly 1 in 30 people worldwide or the same size as the population of the United States.
Education is vital for children in rural areas, as it offers them better opportunities for the future and improved health. However, many children face challenges in accessing education due to the distance they have to walk to get to school. Ensuring access to education in rural areas can break this cycle, leading to better educational outcomes and increased opportunities for both children and their families.
