FedEx, a leading express transportation company, has demonstrated its commitment to community support in the Asia-Pacific region. Over 800 FedEx team members dedicated more than 1,000 volunteer hours to collect and donate over 3,600 kilograms of essential supplies to those in need. These efforts benefited over 1,600 individuals through partnerships with more than 20 non-profit organizations.

In Japan, FedEx employees gathered 558 packages of essential items such as rice, noodles, instant meals, canned food, snacks, and condiments. Weighing over 180 kilograms in total, these items were donated to Second Harvest Japan for distribution among disadvantaged communities.

The donations were part of the annual FedEx Cares Purple Tote Campaign which ran from October to December 31, 2024. The campaign empowers FedEx team members across various markets including Australia, China, Japan, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam and New Zealand.

Kei Alan Kubota noted: “The Purple Tote Campaign is a meaningful opportunity for our team members to demonstrate our commitment to community and environmental stewardship.”

As part of the global initiative FedEx Cares encourages team members worldwide to ‘Drive forward. Give back’ through volunteering throughout the year. In FY24 alone FedEx contributed $55 million globally focusing on programs like Delivering for Good and Sustainable Logistics.
