ELC employees recently joined Executive Chairman, William P. Lauder for a visit to Camp Anita Bliss Coler (ABC), a The Fresh Air Fund camp, for a day of volunteerism. As ELC continues to promote continuous learning, education, and curiosity for youth, volunteers spent time with campers completing a two-week program at the camp, which hosts girls ages 9-15. The campers brought plenty of joy, gratitude, and positivity to team-building activities that included board games, sports, and friendship bracelet-making.

At fresh, our team focused on our commitment to environmental stewardship for the month of April. We are energized to share two key events that encompassed our Earth Month journey: 🌍 The launch of our fresh Environment School and a Climate Fresk workshop: fresh has launched its fresh Environment school to provide education on environmental fundamentals to all employees. For our launch, 35 fresh HQ and North America employees learned about climate change during a collaborative workshop. The Climate Fresk workshop provided a holistic approach to understanding and addressing climate change and empowering individuals to become active agents of change at fresh and in their communities. 🌷 Volunteer Day at The Fresh Air Fund: In the true fresh spirit of community connection, we held our inaugural partnership event with The Fresh Air Fund, a non-profit aligned to our value of caring for the planet and future generations. Our fresh Sustainability Champions partnered with our DEIB Council to support in preparing The Fresh Air Fund's upstate campsite for the summer where they will welcome hundreds of youth from underserved communities in NYC to learn, grow, and thrive in nature. From volunteering to educating our employees on climate change: sky’s the limit to our commitment to make a positive impact in our community and to the planet!
