When making news hastily during the first hours of event, I got mixed 
with the entities we are donating the money to. We have been working 
with The Association of Friends of the University Children's Hospitals 
(Lastenklinikoiden Kummit) earlier in similar project and we are 
donating half of the bottle money to them, not Save the Children 
association (Pelastakaa Lapset ry) - which is quite controversial 
organization in many aspects.

The donations will go towards helping children to get proper medical 
care, as the organization is helping many hospitals. We are also 
donating funds directly to the new hospital in Helsinki.

I am sorry about the confusion, my bad and my mistake.
