Founded to benefit children and young adults around the world, Dear Future is an exciting philanthropic initiative dedicated to writing. A collaborative project from the Montblanc Cultural Foundation together with the Maison, Dear Future is a sustainable way to give back to society with the power of writing.
“With Dear Future,” says Vincent Montalescot, Chief Marketing Officer and Chairman of the Montblanc Cultural Foundation, “our goal is not just to donate funds, but to be a part of the solution and help craft the programs, so they can have even more impact”.

Montblanc Haus – Hamburg, Germany
In partnership with two local schools, the Montblanc Cultural Foundation invites teenagers to learn the artistic writing form of calligraphy and discover the creative power of handwriting. The initiative also gives young people the exciting opportunity to come and experience Montblanc Haus, a unique and inspiring space designed to encapsulate the culture of writing. The free classes are led by a specialist teacher versed in calligraphy education, who works with each group of students to help them hone their skills over several classes. The collaboration will run for several years to maximise the positive impact on the youth of Hamburg.

The ‘Glocal’ Approach
While the Dear Future initiative is global in scale, each project is carefully adapted to suit the needs of local communities. We call this authentic and meaningful approach, ‘glocal’.
While Dear Future has already made a significant impact on local communities in its first year, we believe there’s a lot more that can be done to really make a mark worldwide. Watch this space to discover new Dear Future projects as they unfold.
