Valtiollisten Vankien Huoltoyhdistys Membership Badge.

same badge but from Finland.

MOPR has co-operation in many, many counries.
In Finland there was an organization called "Valtiollisten vankien huoltoyhdistys" (=VVHY).

VVHY means in English something like " Organization to help ´political prisons (judged by the government)".

It was "a fellow organization" for MOPR.

VVHY was established in 1924 and it´s activity was ended by the Finland´s goverment in 1930 because there was a law that all the communist organizations were illegal.

VVHY made badge for the members in 1928. The model of the badge came from MOPR:
