Think about when you go shopping. How do you make your decision on what to buy? Most people consider the style, trendiness, price, and quality of an item. Others weigh in the quality and moral values of the company. It can feel great to support a company that, in turn, supports charity. You can keep reading to learn about a few incredible charities and which luxury fashion brands donate to them.

 

UNICEF

UNICEF is one of the most well-known charities in the world. Their goal is to help children stay safe in over 190 countries. Innovative techniques have helped reduce childhood mortality, poverty, and poor education. To reach these goals, UNICEF often partners with companies including notable names.

Dolce & Gabbana

Dolce and Gabbana partnered with UNICEF on multiple occasions. The fashion house took part in the charity's Frimousses de Createurs fundraiser by creating stunning one-of-a-kind dolls outfitted in runway styles. The fashionable miniatures were placed on display and then auctioned off.

Valentino

Following the Covid-19 pandemic, UNICEF began spreading vaccinations around the globe. Fashion mogul Maison Valentino created a campaign to raise funds for vaccinations and delivery. Limited edition hoodies bearing the statement (V)accinated are being sold with the goal of raising $1 million.

Louis Vuitton

Louis Vuitton and UNICEF have been joined together since 2016. Not only is the international fashion brand encouraging others to donate with the social media Make a Promise campaign, but Vuitton also created a special Silver Lockit bracelet. One hundred dollars of each bracelet sale is donated to help children.

 

World Wildlife Fund

World Wildlife Fund works to preserve nature and the diversity of life in over 100 countries. Their innovative projects revolve around climate, food, wildlife, freshwater, oceans, and forests. A few luxury designers help support WWF's mission of sustainability and continued diversity in the wild.

Chanel

WWF helped develop the Landscape Resilience Fund to address climate change. Chanel invested an incredible $25 million to get the fund off the ground. The goal is to raise $100 million to support sustainable forestry and agricultural practices in developing countries.

Kenzo

Kenzo tied their famous tiger design into conservation. They partnered with WWF and Tiger Beer to raise awareness and money for endangered tigers. Diverse artists help create the Rare Stripes Collaboration. All of the collection's proceeds will go to WWF, and consumers can scan QR codes on each clothing item to learn about real tigers.

 

National Association for the Advancement of Colored People

NAACP continues civil rights activism to help create a society without racial hate or discrimination. From politics to education and economics to social rights, awareness of racial inequality is at the forefront of many people's minds. Several high-end fashion brands have donated towards the cause.

Dolce & Gabbana

Dolce & Gabbana have been extending their reach with charitable donations. The company stood in solidarity against racism and police brutality by taking part in Blackout Tuesday. Following their stand, they donated a substantial sum to the NAACP. Lastly, the fashion gurus shared a link across social media educating people about NAACP and how to contribute.

Gucci

In 2019, Gucci created the Changemakers program and Impact Fund. The overarching goal is to award grants to diverse, community-based organizations committed to positive social justice, equity, wellness, and education. Donations from the fund were also sent to the NAACP.

Ganni

Ganni has been educating themselves since the Black Lives Matter movement began. The company donated $100,000 across BLM, NAACP, and ACLU Nationwide and encouraged consumers to make donations for a week in place of purchasing their products.

The more you have, the more you can donate to charity. Luxury fashion brands have been doing their part, and you can, too.
