Teavana partners with CARE to help relief efforts in Japan
In response to the disastrous earthquake and tsunami in Japan, Teavana is partnering with CARE to collect and facilitate much needed donations directly to the scene. In partnership, Teavana and CARE have set up a donation page with donation fund matching at: www.care.org/teavanaforjapan.
- All donations made through : www.care.org/teavanaforjapan will be directed to CARE’s work in supporting relief efforts in Japan and other emergencies around the world.
- Teavana will be matching all customer and employee donations, dollar for dollar, up to a total donation of $50,000 until April 30, 2011.
Teavana and CARE want to help return Japan to a sense of normalcy, and help to rebuild the lives & livelihood of those who have suffered loss, and time is of the essence to get much needed aid to areas most affected.
“Teavana has many ties to Japan from the many artisans who make our exquisite cast iron collection, to the gardens which grow our tea, to our many employees who have friends and relatives in Japan. Our hearts go out to the people of Japan, and know that any contribution from our staff & customers combined with Teavana’s matching funds would help this situation” says Andrew Mack, Chairman & CEO of Teavana.
CARE is rushing aid to Japan right now. Donate today to help in the relief effort. Whether its $5, $50, or $500; everything donated goes to work immediately. Your gift will help save lives.
My family is in Japan and I appreciate the kindness and generosity!
