“Donating H&M clothing reinforces our
company values and enables us to forge deeper connections with our
employees, our customers and the communities where we do business.”
-Sanna Lindberg, Country Manager H&M U.S.
Corporate
Social Responsibility
Thank you for your interest in
H&M. Our business concept is to offer our customers fashion and
quality at the best price. However, at H&M, quality is about
more than making sure that our products meet or exceed our customers'
expectations. It also means that they have to be manufactured under
good conditions and that our customers are satisfied with us as a
company.
Taking responsibility for how our business affects people and the environment
is essential for H&M's continued growth and profitability. Along with
H&M’s global Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives, we feel it
is vital to give back to the local communities where our products are
sold.
H&M extends its support to the communities in which
our employees and customers live and work. Regularly donating clothing
to victims of war and natural disasters, as well as to other people in
need, is part of that effort.
Your organization may qualify to receive a grant
or in-kind donation from H&M if it has 501(c) (3) status and offers programs
or services that enhance education, promote healthy living, provide opportunities
for women and children to reach their maximum potential or work to improve
the environment.
Donation requests will be reviewed on an individual
basis. However, please note that H&M does not donate to fashion
shows or to organizations that promote religious faith or have
the nomination or election of candidates to political office as
an explicit goal or purpose. We strongly limit our involvement
with auctions, conferences, fundraisers, galas, tournaments or similar
events (including door prizes and/or gift bag items).
If you believe that your organization qualifies,
please go to the donations page for
more information about how to apply.
