'This is clearly a time for people to come together in every way and on every level, because we are all stronger in our united resolve.'
Author:Ana ColónUpdated:Apr 1, 2020Original:Apr 1, 2020Capri Holdings Ltd — the luxury fashion group that owns Michael Kors, Versace and Jimmy Choo — announced on Wednesday that its brands and founders would collectively be giving more than $3 million to Covid-19 relief efforts across the globe.
Earlier this year, Versace donated ¥1 million to the Chinese Red Cross Foundation. It's now shifting its philanthropic efforts to Italy, where the brand is based. It will give $400,000 to the intensive care unit at San Raffaele hospital in Milan and $100,000 to the Camera Nazionale Della Moda Italiana, to support its "Italia, we are with you" initiative that funds ventilators and medical equipment for medical facilities across the country.
