GAP Foundation

Many of our employees faced unexpected hardships during the pandemic related to health issues, or loss of family business. In response, GAP formed the GAP Foundation, a resource for GAPsters by GAPsters. Employees are able to donate to the foundation, and funds are allocated monthly by an internal committee. To date, the GAP Foundation has helped over 50 families deal with unforeseen problems brought on by the pandemic.

AMBIENTE (Environment)

We’re creating a vibrant, more sustainable future.

Tree-Nation

Tree-Nation gathers and coordinates reforestation efforts worldwide in a unique platform, enabling GAP (and GAPsters) to take action. Trees are key pillars of the world, benefiting humans by creating better social conditions, and purifying our water and air. Trees also benefit the environment by providing homes for various forms of life, cooling our climate and improving our soil. Here’s how GAP has already made an impact:

4Ocean

GAP is a member of 4Ocean, an incredible community and global movement on a mission to end the ocean plastic crisis. Through this partnership, GAP donates and educates people about this global crisis, empowering people to end their dependence on single-use plastic. Together, we can help humanity grow alongside nature — and not at its expense.
