Klarna today is donating 50,000 dollars to Delivering Good, to help
the charity distribute donations to families in need. The donation is
part of the payment solution provider’s “thankfulness” giveaway
program that was held over Thanksgiving.
The giveaway program engaged consumers to get involved with helping
others. Klarna invited shoppers to share a comment of what they are
thankful for on Instagram, and in return the company made an
additional donation to Delivering Good for each comment received.
This donation brings Klarna’s total 2020 contribution to Delivering
Good up to 100,000 dollars. The organization has been partnering with
local agencies to provide donated items to millions of families and
individuals directly impacted by COVID-19, as well as natural
disasters, homelessness and other challenges.
“Klarna is proud to continue our partnership with Delivering Good,
supporting their efforts to deliver hope, dignity and joy to people in
need,” David Sykes, Klarna’s head of U.S., commented in a press
release. “We appreciate all of the positive feedback we received from
our US shoppers over Thanksgiving weekend, as this donation allows us
to make a positive impact by helping those affected by poverty and
tragedy during this challenging year.”
