BLACK FRIDAY, FELT WAY
DRIVING A POSITIVE CHANGE
Felt Instruments is a loyalty-driven, empathy-first company. That's why each year, in time for Black Friday, I donate part of the sales to support local non-profit organizations working for human rights. Ever since Russia invaded Ukraine, people have had to flee their homes and escape to neighboring countries, including Poland, where I'm based.
War takes more than lives - for many children and adults, it means they can't pursue their artistic education, follow their passions, and do what they love most.
That's why, from November 20th until the end of the month, 20% of all sales will be donated to the Homo Faber Association's refugee art scholarships program. The program allows children and adults who found themselves in Poland because of the war in Ukraine to continue their creative and professional development in music, sports, dance, theater, and visual arts. If you had your eyes on one of the plugins, now is the best time to grab it and support a great cause!

Don’t worry; there’s nothing extra to be done on your end. 20% of every purchase you make until the end of the month will be donated to the scholarships program. The logistics are on me.

While well-established charities benefit from larger donation flows, local organizations operate with much smaller budgets—which means every contribution has a bigger impact and can create real, tangible change.
Some organizations, like Homo Faber, are registered as civil associations rather than foundations. This means donations aren't tax-deductible, so larger companies tend to overlook them in favor of organizations that offer tax benefits.
This is the second year the Felt community is supporting Homo Faber, and I've seen firsthand how much our contributions mean to them. Our support truly keeps their programs running.

Homo Faber is a non-profit civil organization working for human rights. They’re based in Lublin, a medium-sized city in Eastern Poland. You can read more about them and what they’re currently up to here.

By all means, yes!

20% of your purchase will go towards the scholarship program. It’s not a choice between your saving and supporting a good cause - it’s purely a win-win kind of situation :-)

The download codes are not tied to your Pulse account until you’ve redeemed them, so you can purchase some of the plugins and gift the codes to somebody dear to you. Or you can donate to Homo Faber directly.
