HELPING COMMUNITIES FLOURISH AND GROW
Tapestry is proud of its culture of service and our commitment to ensuring the vibrancy of communities globally where we and our customers live and work, and where our products are made. We serve those communities through empowerment programs, financial and product donations, and volunteering, to make a positive impact on society.

Volunteering
Serving the local community is part of our ethos. In 2018, more than 2,000 volunteers contributed over 6,000 company-sponsored hours to great causes—from packing food for the hungry, to counseling women re-entering the workforce. Our Coach and kate spade new york Foundations support these service hours with grants to nonprofits where we serve.
