Donation Committees

Each region in which Gildan operates has a donation committee whose members are responsible for receiving the donations request from local organizations and deciding which projects to support, based on the parameters set in the Company donation policy (youth education and humanitarian aid).

Organizations seeking financial or in-kind donations from Gildan must submit their request in writing. To be considered for support, applicant organizations must respect the following conditions:

• Demonstrate that their project improves quality of life and integrates humanitarian aid, youth and/or education into their respective organization's mission statement or purpose.
• Operate in regions where Gildan has offices and/or facilities.
• Be registered and provide a valid charitable registration number.
• Be financially sound (provide a copy of their most recent financial statements/balance sheet).

Organizations that are not eligible include: religious, political, sectarian or advocacy groups; sports organizations; service or social clubs (e.g., Lions’ Club, Knights of Columbus, etc.) and private schools.

Requests are accepted throughout the year. Proposals should include a description of the organization, its mission statement, area and population served, clear details of the project for which the organization seeks funding, amount requested, project budget and description of funding sources. Some other conditions may apply.

Proposals should be forwarded to:
