Aritzia’s Ongoing Commitment to Giving Back
Aritzia has always focused on doing business responsibly by supporting sustainability, fair sourcing, and community programs. Through the Aritzia Community program, the company has donated millions to non-profits that help women with leadership, mental health, and education.
This new effort continues Aritzia’s mission to use fashion for positive change. By expanding its support, Aritzia hopes to create even more opportunities for women and girls to succeed.
“We are optimistic about the future. There is a tremendous amount going on around us, all of us, and it’s a very challenging time for everybody in many different ways. But as long as we continue to do what we think is best and continue to do what we see as right, that will guide us and lead us towards positive outcomes — whether it’s within our company or whether it has a bigger impact on our community.” said Jennifer Wong, Chief Executive Officer of Aritzia.
