Somfy’s Windows of Hope Challenge Gives Back to United Way

Throughout the months of May and June, Somfy ran a social media campaign to raise money for the United Way to assist areas impacted by COVID-19. In our Windows of Hope campaign, we asked people to share what gave them hope using the hashtag #WindowsofHope. 

People responded, sharing messages of hope in their windows:

They also shared the views that give them hope:

We were amazed by the response and by the beautiful and hopeful messages shared. Something as small as sharing a message of hope in your window might be enough to put a smile on someone else’s face. 

At Somfy, our motorized products make your home more comfortable, more efficient, and smarter. During this time home has become more important than ever. The backyard where we can get some fresh air or the window we look out as we work from home have become important parts of our daily life. We’re glad this campaign encouraged people to share some hope and to think about the things that make them hopeful. 

Thanks to the contributions, the shares, and the photos, Somfy was able to raise over $10,000 for the United Way. 

The world might feel more uncertain now, but when we all band together we can really make a difference.
