Disney x Kiehl’s Team Up To Donate $100,000 To Feeding America

Kiehl’s Since 1851, the 166-year-old purveyor of the finest skincare, is proud to announce its collaboration with Disney this holiday season, for a collection featuring Mickey Mouse, one of the world’s most beloved luminaries.

Part of this one-of-a-kind collaboration furthers the company’s support of organizations that work to help children and their families thrive:  Kiehl’s is proud to announce that select items from the Disney x Kiehl’s collection will make up the 9th Annual Limited Edition Charitable Holiday Collection. Continuing its holiday philanthropic tradition, Kiehl’s pledges 100% of its net profits of this collection, up to $100,000, to Feeding America®, the nation’s leading domestic hunger-relief charity. This donation will help provide 1,100,000 meals* to families this holiday.

As part of its commitment to creating healthier generations, Disney also has also been a longtime supporter of Feeding America, by expanding nationwide access to nutritious foods, including fruits and vegetables, in communities where kids and families need it most.

The Disney x Kiehl’s charitable products will include a Mickey Mouse-adorned whipped body butter, a scented hand cream trio, a gift box, and a tin, all which benefit Feeding America.

With a presence in all 50 states and Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico, Feeding America’s nationwide network of 200 member food banks support 60,000 food assistance programs, shelters and meal sites. Each year, Feeding America’s network provides meals and resources to over 46 million people in the United States struggling with food insecurity, including nearly 12 million children. The Feeding America network secures and distributes 4 billion meals annually.

“More than 41 million people in the United States face hunger, including 13 million children and 5.7 million seniors. Feeding America is grateful for the ongoing support of our partners at Kiehl’s and thank them for their creativity and commitment to helping people in need,” said Nancy Curby, Senior Vice President, Corporate Partnerships & Operations at Feeding America. “We are excited to continue our partnership with the generous and incredibly heartwarming Disney x Kiehl’s collaboration, which will help provide more than 1,100,000 meals to children and families this holiday season.”

“I can’t think of a more fitting way to support children and families in need than with this collection featuring Mickey Mouse,” said Chris Salgardo, President, Kiehl’s USA. “Disney has been bringing joy to children and families everywhere for generations, and we are honored that this collaboration will raise funds for those with food insecurities, and awareness for the work of Feeding America. It’s staggering that one in six children in America do not know where they will get their next meal, and we are humbled that the Kiehl’s community can help do their part to alleviate that uncertainty.

One of the world’s most beloved icons, Mickey Mouse made his debut on November 18, 1928, as star of the first synchronized sound cartoon, Steamboat Willie, and has remained a sensation ever since. Mickey has become an international personality whose success laid the foundation upon which Walt Disney built his creative organization. Mickey is one of the most timeless originals of our culture and times. His beaming face is recognized around the globe, and his endearing personality has captured the imagination of generations, spanning almost 90 years.

*$1 helps provide 11 meals* secured by Feeding America on behalf of local member food banks.
