This year saw FedEx employees once again coming together across regions in teams of various sizes to ensure every donation made a meaningful impact. Their contributions included support for children with leukemia and providing educational supplies for those in need. Each team collaborated with their chosen charity to gather essential items such as packaged foodstuffs, books/toys/winter clothing/hygiene products which were then placed into FedEx Cares Purple Bags symbolizing care and compassion before being delivered by FedEx employees themselves.
In Taiwan alone:
- A total of 192 volunteers teamed up with six non-profit organizations.
- They collected 488 kilograms of essentials benefiting 652 children and underserved families.
- Donations included daily necessities like toilet paper/body wash along with food items such as soy milk/instant meal packs.
These efforts aimed at meeting practical needs ensured recipients had access to necessary resources thereby improving their quality of life.
