Environment programs: We’re supporting efforts to restore areas within the Amazon forest that are under threat from forest fires. The Alliance’s reforestation work also includes training and outreach programs to empower local communities in protection and governance practices, while developing and strengthening livelihood models that support economic development. We also support the National Park Foundation in the U.S., which has provided more than 1,000,000 students with meaningful national park experiences since 2011, encouraging young people to connect with the natural world. In addition, we’re backing the Foundation’s work to advance outdoor equity by eliminating barriers and promoting access. And in the Chyulu Hills region of Kenya, we’re supporting community empowerment programs for Maasai smallholder farmers, including educational scholarships for local students as well as pastureland management training. Crises and natural disasters: We also mobilized funding for a number of unexpected events in fiscal year 2021 and early 2022, including flooding in Australia, China, Eastern and Western Europe, and the U.S; tornados, hurricanes, and significant storms in the U.S.; support for COVID-19 in several countries around the world; the typhoon in the Philippines; wildfires in Canada and the Western U.S.; the earthquake in Haiti; and humanitarian support in Afghanistan. Volunteers from retail participated in a gardening activity that included seeding, weeding, mulching, composting, planting, and harvesting to create micro farms and edible gardens in Orlando, Florida, in honor of Earth Day 2022. Responding to the war in Ukraine We are deeply concerned about the ongoing war in Ukraine and have provided support in several ways. We made corporate donations to humanitarian efforts helping people on the ground, including to relief agencies and non-profits, such as World Central Kitchen, Doctors Without Borders, and the International Rescue Committee. We facilitated contributions to UNICEF — which is supporting children and families affected by the war — through a tile on our website and services like Apple Music and the App Store. We also offered our employees opportunities to donate and volunteer, including holding a 2-to-1 matching campaign to amplify employee donations to organizations providing shelter, food, and medicine to those affected by the war. Employees also took part in virtual activities, including providing language support to refugees, recording video messages and making cards for children, and supporting the Missing Maps Project, which helps map vulnerable places, like Ukraine, so that NGOs and individuals can use the maps and data to better respond to crises. At the same time, we have worked to support our teams in Ukraine and across the region. In Ukraine, we contacted every employee, assisting them and their families in any way we could. We are also offering support to our Ukrainian team members located outside of the country, as well as any employee who needs support. Employee giving Our Employee Giving program provides opportunities for employees to contribute to the causes they care deeply about with the support of Apple. From volunteering to donations to smaller individual actions, Apple is committed to giving, hand in hand with our team members. Our program promotes charitable giving to qualified organizations by matching donations of time, money, eligible stock, or Apple products. In 2021, Apple’s Employee Giving program celebrated its 10th anniversary, having raised nearly $725 million for 39,000 organizations worldwide — with over $120 million distributed to organizations around the globe in 2021 alone. 25 The funds raised through Apple’s Employee Giving program include the work of 68,000 employee volunteers who have logged almost 2 million volunteer hours since 2011.
