Each day at our headquarters, stores, offices, and distribution centers around the world, our approximately 22,000 employees (as of the end of fiscal 2019) strive to meet our vision of serving the needs of all families with young children.
Without the passion and commitment of our diverse work family around the world, we would be unable to deliver on this commitment-or to contribute our talents and resources to nurture the health and wellbeing of children and families in our local communities. We seek to provide our employees with an inclusive and fulfilling work environment and to ensure that workers across our supply chain are treated with fairness, dignity, and respect.
Carter’s Cares
At Carter’s, kids and families are our central focus. It is only natural for us to apply our talents and resources to nurture and protect children and to build communities in which they can thrive.
Carter’s Cares, our philanthropic and volunteerism program, is designed to engage our employees and customers directly with the communities in which we do business. It is a key way we work to foster an inclusive environment rooted in shared experience, mutual respect and understanding. We are committed to:
- Giving back to the communities in which we do business
- Educating our employees about our commitment to making a difference
- Engaging our employees and customers in the causes we support
- Keeping children at the heart of our business and know that the choices we make every day will have an impact on their future
Focusing on The Whole Child
Through Carter’s Cares, we offer a host of philanthropic programs that engage our employees directly with the communities in which we do business. This is one of the many ways we foster purpose and meaningful shared experiences for our teams. We partner with organizations to help promote the well-being of all babies and children. Programs include:
Supporting Our
Employees in Doing Good
We empower our employees to serve their communities through company- sponsored volunteer events as well as by encouraging them to organize their own.
Carter’s invests in families spending more time together by making a $250 grant to a school when an eligible Carter’s employee has volunteered at least 16 hours in the classroom. Our Matching Gifts Program currently matches 100 percent of every dollar, up to an annual per employee limit, given by an eligible employee to charitable organizations that benefit the health and wellbeing of children. The program ensures a voice for employees in selecting the organizations that receive financial support from Carter’s.
