UNIQLO in Korea has launched the second year of “Happy Space for Our Kids” campaign in partnership with Green Umbrella. This campaign is UNIQLO Korea’s local program for RE.UNIQLO initiative, which donates upcycled furniture to child-care shelters that need new furniture. This year, UNIQLO is donating a total of 500 pieces of upcycled furniture to 30 child-care shelters nationwide. To commemorate the start of the campaign this year, UNIQLO employees volunteered in installing the furniture for children. On January 14, store employees visited a child-care shelter located in Eunpyeong area in Seoul to replace outdated furniture with new upcycled pieces and help the area make clean. They also rebuilt a mini library with upcycled shelves and filled them with new books. #UNIQLO #LifeWear #HappySpaceForOurKids

Warmth can be a feeling, a kind word, or simply knowing you’re not alone.   As winter sets in and the holidays begin, UNIQLO is supporting communities in need by donating 50,000 HEATTECH items across the United States. This nationwide initiative reaches individuals and families through four Feeding America Network partner food banks located in New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Dallas. It also extends to Native communities in Pine Ridge through the Native American Heritage Association (NAHA), to youth experiencing homelessness through Covenant House, and to vulnerable New Yorkers supported by NYC Health + Hospitals.   We asked volunteers and neighbors what warmth meant to them during distribution events across the country. One HEATTECH recipient shared, “Warmth is serving others from the heart. Warmth comes to me when someone accepts me for who I am and gives me love, respect, and understanding.”   This effort is part of UNIQLO’s global Heart of LifeWear campaign, donating 1 million items of HEATTECH to people in need throughout the world.   You can join us by donating to Feeding America at checkout in any UNIQLO store across the United States.   #UNIQLO #UNIQLOUSA #LifeWear

This season, UNIQLO is carrying out “The Heart of LifeWear” campaign, a global initiative to donate 1 million items of HEATTECH and other clothing items to people in need around the world. In Korea, UNIQLO partnered with SCELA (Support Center for Elderly Living Alone) to deliver 60,000 HEATTECH thermal clothing items to 30,000 elderly people living alone who are most vulnerable during the cold winter season. To mark the closing of the campaign, UNIQLO held a kimchi-making event on December 6 at the Eunpyeong Senior Welfare Center in Seoul, together with UNIQLO volunteers and NGO partners. In Korea, it is a tradition to prepare and store kimchi during winter. For the event, we prepared 5,150kg of kimchi, delivering it to approximately 900 elderly residents in the Eunpyeong area, which is an area of Seoul with a high proportion of elderly people living alone. In recognition of the donation and of UNIQLO’s ongoing commitment to supporting elderly people living alone in Korea, on December 4, UNIQLO was designated a Merit Organization for Protecting Vulnerable Elderly, and received the Minister of Health and Welfare Commendation. #UNIQLO #LifeWear #PowerofClothing #TheHeartofLifeWear #HEATTECH #UNIQLOKOREA #Sustainability #donation

UNIQLO Shares The Heart of LifeWear in Malaysia Through The Heart of LifeWear initiative, UNIQLO continues its mission to make everyday life better - donating over one million pieces of HEATTECH and other new clothing items around the world this season.   As part of this global initiative, in Malaysia this year, we donated 15,500 AIRism pieces to five partners – UNHCR, Rotary Club of Kuching Central, Malaysia Relief Agency, Alpro Foundation, and Malaysian Red Crescent Sunflower Centre – supporting refugees, rural communities, flood victims, underserved students, and children with special needs.   Since The Heart of LifeWear launched last year, in Malaysia, the initiative has so far touched 26,000 lives, proving that LifeWear is more than clothing – it’s care, kindness, and meaningful change. As UNIQLO celebrates 15 years in Malaysia, we remain dedicated to giving back to the communities that have grown with us.   Globally, in 2024, UNIQLO donated over one million HEATTECH and AIRism items across 28 countries and regions, including refugee camps in Jordan, disaster-hit areas in Japan, and communities in need. These efforts are supported by UNIQLO employees, local management, and global brand ambassadors, who actively participate in donation events to bring comfort and dignity to vulnerable communities.   #LifeWear #UNIQLOMalaysia #TheHeartofLifeWear
