[Dubai] – Apparel Group brand TOMS, renowned for its commitment to social impact and environmental responsibility, proudly announces the launch of its latest sustainability initiative. Throughout the month of April, TOMS will plant 1,000 trees, marking a significant step towards a greener future.
In addition to the impact your purchases have year-round – helping provide mental health resources to the millions of people who need them – Apparel Group and TOMS are thrilled to work with The Storey Group to plant 1,000 trees in the UAE. The Storey Group supports companies to make our planet a better place by planting trees.
TOMS works at the intersection of climate change and mental health through their Impact Partner Climate Mental Health Network which aims to provide access to education, tools, programs, and support to recognize the signs and manage the emotional impacts of climate change. They offer wellbeing tips to cope with climate anxiety, like:
Bring nature into your life.
Notice the beauty around you and slow down your breathing.
Take action for the environment.
Helping create a greener planet is just one way you’re helping improve lives with TOMS. Wear Good.
In addition to driving environmental impact, TOMS aims to inform customers about this sustainability initiative in celebration of World Earth Day. Instead of the traditional shoe recycling drive, the focus now shifts to tree planting, reflecting TOMS’ unwavering commitment to sustainability.
