Fashion Opens its Wallet for Coronavirus Charities

Action

Fashion companies opened their pockets Monday for coronavirus-related causes. Tiffany & Co. Foundation revealed $1 million in total donations.

The Tiffany & Co. Foundation divided its donation between global and local causes — giving $750,000 to the World Health Organization’s COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund and making a $250,000 contribution to The New York Community Trust’s NYC COVID-19 Response and Impact Fund. The latter organization aids social service and arts and culture organizations struggling in the pandemic’s fallout across New York City’s five boroughs.

Tiffany said it will also match all employee donations made to “qualified nonprofit organizations” that support COVID-19 response.
