Michelmores has supported From Babies with Love since 2022. The social enterprise is the Firm’s preferred gift service when it wants to mark and celebrate defining moments in the lives of its colleagues, such as welcoming them to the Firm or going on Family Leave. As a result of the support it receives from Michelmores and its other partners, From Babies with Love has announced that it is now actively helping 46,660 children in 45 countries across the globe.
From Babies with Love is a purpose-led brand that donates 100% of its profits to ‘on the ground’ projects that help orphaned and abandoned children around the world to break the cycle of poverty. Many of the projects focus on the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, particularly the right to a quality education, and also social, family-based care, which helps children to have a better chance of achieving independence in adulthood.
Kim Tomlinson, Deputy HR Director at Michelmores said:
“Choosing From Babies with Love to help our colleagues to celebrate milestones in their lives, reflects our values and the work we are doing under the Significance of Impact pillar of our strategy, Destination 2030. As a Firm, we know that our choices have an impact and we are dedicated to empowering our communities to achieve a more sustainable and positive future. That’s why we work hard to balance our commercial aims with a range of ESG initiatives.”
In addition to its social impact, From Babies with Love is focused on sourcing its products sustainably. Its garments are made with certified organic, Fair Trade and upcycled materials including plastic retrieved from oceans. All of its greetings cards are made with FSC card. These environmental commitments are important to the Firm following its certification with Planet Mark for the second year in a row. Planet Mark is a leading sustainability certification and Net Zero pioneer. The Firm’s certification is a mark of its commitment to reducing its carbon footprint and delivering purpose alongside profit by working with its communities as a diverse, equitable and engaged business.
