SUSTAINABILITY
UNIQLO is donating 50,000 HEATTECH products to communities across the US as part of The Heart of LifeWear initiative. Globally, we’re donating over 1 MILLION pieces of clothing to those in need.
Help ensure families have access to meals by donating in-store or online.
Who We’re Helping:
Feeding America® is the largest hunger-relief organization in the United States. Last year they helped provide 5.9 billion meals to tens of millions of people experiencing hunger in the US.
Four partner food banks within the Feeding America network received HEATTECH donations to distribute before the holiday season. Located in Los Angeles, New York, Dallas, and Chicago, these food banks were supported by UNIQLO volunteers who joined for a dedicated visit to help unpack and distribute the items, ensuring families had warm clothes when it mattered most. "The holidays are a time to gather, share meals and find comfort with our loved ones. As a dedicated partner in the movement to end hunger, UNIQLO is making sure people have what they need to celebrate," said Lauren Biedron, senior vice president of corporate partnerships at Feeding America.
Covenant House serves youth overcoming homelessness and survivors of human trafficking by providing safe shelter, unconditional love, and relentless support. They are national partners of RE.UNIQLO, distributing gently used clothing donated by customers, to their network of shelters across the US.
As part of our HEATTECH donation initiative, UNIQLO volunteers actively participated in the Covenant House Rally to End Youth Homelessness held in Times Square, New York City. During this event, volunteers worked together to pack and prepare essential HEATTECH items for later distribution, while raising awareness for youth homelessness across the country.
Native American Heritage Association (NAHA) supports families and individuals on reservations in South Dakota and Wyoming through food, clothing, heating, and emergency support.
Through our HEATTECH and RE.UNIQLO initiatives, we successfully distributed essential winter clothing donations to over 500 families in the Pine Ridge community. This effort was made possible through close collaboration with Pine Ridge High School and the incredible support of local volunteers.
NYC Health + Hospitals is the largest municipal healthcare system in the nation, serving more than 1 million New Yorkers annually in more than 70 patient care locations.
The donated HEATTECH products will provide warmth and comfort to individuals served by NYC Health + Hospitals’ Street Health Outreach & Wellness (SHOW) program. SHOW supports unsheltered and unhoused New Yorkers in need of care, with a focus on patients who are historically disconnected from health and social services and who may otherwise be unable to access hospitals, as well as patients with substance use disorder.
