Corporate Giving

Making Wishes Come True

For more than 40 years, Lands' End has developed a strong heritage of giving back to our community and beyond. And to continue this legacy, our corporate giving focus is one of “Making Wishes Come True”.

By combining our resources – cash and product donations as well as employee volunteerism, we will come alongside your organization to grant wishes in the Wisconsin communities where we live and work.

How do we define a wish? Perhaps your organization has fallen on hard times and is in need of an extra leg up. Or maybe, you have a vision for our community and are in need of a partner. We want to hear your wishes.

Wishes will be reviewed and granted quarterly (April, July, October, January). To be considered, ensure your application and materials are received by the end of the following months: March, June, September, or December.

In addition, we strongly believe in employee-directed giving. By giving their time and resources, our employees decide how our giving funds are directed. Some of these programs include a matching employee volunteerism program, a department fundraiser-matching program, and individual support for employees and their families who participate in walk/run/bike events.
