When it comes to watching out for the health of the Baltic sea, the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) is one of Finland's non-profit organizations taking the lead. The organization has a number of initiatives aimed at protecting the ecology. The creation of wetlands in coastal zones, which prevent runoff from farming entering the sea, is one major project. Preparation for a possible oil spill is another, with some 5,500 volunteers recruited already to help in the case of such an emergency.

Whether it's redesigning a website structure or taking yoga classes in German, this GROW participant stays busy.

Even if you don't know the German words for "drain" of "clogged" you can still manage to solve the problem of a clogged drain with your janitor in Berlin. GROW participant Pirita Hiltunen from MTV3 Finland is living proof that even after only a month at Ullstein Buchverlage in Berlin, you can get by easier than you think. "German yoga lesson instructions are slowly starting to make sense to me - as well as the chaotic Berlin traffic. With a bike," she says.

Now that the days are growing longer - and warmer - it's time to start thinking about the yard. Or if you happen to be in Australia where fall is in full swing, it's cleanup time.

Minna Ahlsten is a master of big deals at MTV3, something that has helped her become a finalist in the Bonnier Sales Awards.

Minna Ahlsten may be a Bonnier-trained sales representative, but it's her dedication and true passion for the job that warrants her success and recognition as a finalist for the Bonnier Sales Awards. The Tampere, Finland, native joined Bonnier after graduating from Tampere University three years ago to participate in MTV3's sales training program. A year later, she was hired as a sales representative, and her customer-oriented approach has earned her a nod for Sales Representative of the Year.

"I try to sell solutions, not just campaigns," she says.

A Russian GROW ambassador has arrived in MTV3.

The first week of my stay in Finland has passed!

There are lots of impressions already. The first that has amazed me was an apartment which was rented for me by organizers of the GROW program. I most likely could have managed a half of this apartment for it is so huge for such a petit girl, as I am: 65 sq. m. In this apartment I have everything that can be necessary for living except for perhaps a teapot.
