FedEx, a global leader in express transportation, has demonstrated its commitment to community support through significant volunteer efforts. More than 800 FedEx team members dedicated over 1,000 hours to collect and donate over 3,600 kilograms of essential supplies for those in need. This initiative benefited more than 1,650 individuals across various demographics.

In Vietnam, FedEx collaborated with the VinaCapital Foundation to provide joy to children from disadvantaged communities. Over 70 team members donated toys, school supplies, books, and daily necessities to more than 50 young beneficiaries. These donations were part of the annual FedEx Cares Purple Tote Campaign, which ran from October to December 31, 2024. The campaign empowers FedEx employees to make an impact by supporting NGOs in their local communities. Volunteers from countries including Vietnam, Australia, China, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Philippines, South Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand participated in this program.

FedEx team members worked together across the region in various sized teams. They aimed to make meaningful contributions by supporting children with leukemia and providing educational supplies among other initiatives. Essential items such as packaged food and winter clothing were delivered in FedEx Cares purple tote bags.
