We are proud to announce our participation in the Black in Fashion Council (BIFC) as a member of the Active Allyship program committed to joining together to secure the advancement of Black individuals in the fashion and beauty industry. Over the next three years, Tapestry will work with #BIFC Executive board members who will provide feedback, insight and counsel on the execution of our equity, inclusion and diversity strategy. In celebration of Black History Month and the announcement of this partnership, we hosted a special edition of our internal Unscripted speaker series - where we invite guests who live our values to talk about current issues and topics - featuring BIFC co-founders Lindsay Peoples-Wagner and Sandrine Charles. Our Black Alliance ERG led the conversation with Lindsay and Sandrine, discussing diversity in fashion today and the actions we can all take for a more equitable, inclusive and diverse culture. Thank you to Lindsay, Sandrine and our Black Alliance ERG for the honest and empowering session! #OurTapestry #blackhistorymonth

A few weeks ago, our Chief Digital Officer, Noam Paransky, spoke on stage at the National Retail Federation (NRF) Conference with Rob Garf, VP of Industry Strategy and Insights at Salesforce Retail. They took this #Garfie selfie to help raise money for the Retail Orphan Initiative, a nonprofit that raises awareness and funds for orphans worldwide. Salesforce’s commitment to donating $50 for every #Garfie selfie posted (up to $10,000) to the cause, really inspired us! As a result, we are excited to share that we will be matching their donation with a $10,000 gift to Retail Orphan Initiative through the Coach Foundation.
