The company has also donated more than one million masks to public health workers.
Author:Dara PrantPublish date:Apr 15, 2020On Wednesday, the American Eagle Outfitters Foundation announced it would donate $1 million to Covid-19 relief efforts and more than one million masks to public health workers. The Pittsburgh-based company — which owns American Eagle and Aerie — joins a growing list of retailers that have made seven-figure donations to fight the global Coronavirus pandemic.
In addition to the monetary and mask donations, Aerie has made undisclosed contributions to America's Food Fund — a Coronavirus relief project launched by Leonardo DiCaprio, Laurene Powell Jobs and Apple — which raises money for nonprofit organizations World Central Kitchen and Feeding America.
On a more local scale, the company is donating more than 2,000 gift cards to medical workers in New York City, as well as to frontline responders in other coronavirus hotspots: Donations include a $50,000 grant to the city of Ottawa, Kansas to help local businesses and nonprofit organizations; $50,000 to the Hazleton Revitalization Fund in Hazleton, Pennsylvania to support local medical centers and businesses; and $25,000 to Mississauga, Ontario, Canada's Trillium Hospital Foundation and...
News of the company's relief efforts comes shortly after it was revealed that its stock has lost 43% of its value from Jan. 31 to March 30, and as it has had to furlough the majority of its in-store and some of its corporate associates due to temporary store closures.
