Toms to donate one-third of net profits to Covid-19 relief
Toms has announced it will be donating one-third of net profits to the COVID-19 Global Giving Fund created to support long-time Giving Partners currently on the front lines of the health crisis. Beginning this month, every Toms purchase will directly support Giving Partners that are responding to COVID-19, both in the U.S. and abroad. For every $3, the company will donate $1 to the fund, which currently supports giving partners the brands has worked with for many years.
The Toms COVID-19 Global Giving Fund currently supports Americares, Crisis Text Line, International Medical Corps, Partners in Health, and Water Aid.
“TOMS has always been in business to improve lives. That mission is important to us and our community every day. Now, more than ever, we are honored to apply what we have learned over the past 14 years of giving to address this global health crisis. We know the best way to help is to use our resources and the power of our customer’s purchase to invest in our giving partners who are on the frontlines directly addressing this pandemic.
We are grateful for these deep partnerships and are eager, together with our customers, to continue to support their efforts to combat COVID-19,” said Amy Smith, TOMS Chief Giving Officer.
Together, these organizations are working to combat the negative effects of COVID-19 through mental health support, handwashing, and medical supplies.
As the Original One for One Company, TOMS has always been in business to improve lives. Since first launched in 2006, our community has impacted nearly 100,000,000 lives. Today, they have given 1/3 of our profits to organizations around the world that are working to create positive change. That means that for every $3 they make, they give $1 away—both in the form of shoes for those in need as well as impact grants to fuel meaningful work. This is their commitment—to their partners, to their community, and to the future.
In this pandemic time, the entire world is suffering, and it’s high time for all the organizations to stand with those who are getting suffer from COVID-19. iDesigniBuy also supports this noble cause and stands firmly in the fight against Coronavirus Pandemic.
