We’re proud to share that Essity is helping to feed thousands of people across North America this Thanksgiving season. This year, we are donating nearly 3,500 holiday meals on behalf of our North America employees, supporting families throughout the communities where we operate.

Essity employs approximately 3,700 people across more than a dozen locations in North America, and giving back is an important part of who we are. Every day, our teams manufacture and deliver trusted products including the global Tork® brand of professional hygiene solutions, TENA® personal care and incontinence products, and medical solutions from world-renowned brands like JOBST, Actimove and Leukoplast. Supporting our neighbors during the holidays is one more way we put our purpose into action.

As Amy Bellcourt, VP of Communications, Professional Hygiene, shared, “Essity is grateful to help so many incredible organizations providing holiday meals in the communities where our employees live and work for the fifth consecutive year. During this season of giving, we’re proud to provide these meals for those who need it most.”
