Lululemon’s corporate giving is centered on expanding equitable access to movement, mindfulness, and mental-health supports through its Centre for Social Impact and the lululemon Gives initiative. It prioritizes community-led, equity-focused programs that remove barriers to physical and social wellbeing—especially those using movement- and mindfulness-based approaches—and pairs cash awards with non-financial supports and employee engagement. Grants are global (active in ~18 markets) and target grassroots and seed-stage organizations as well as programs that can scale reach and impact.
Program-driven corporate philanthropy administered through an annual Community Wellbeing Grant cycle (Centre for Social Impact) and the multi-year lululemon Gives initiative; typical awards are in the ~$43,000 range with grants up to ~$50,000 (often limited to a percentage of an applicant's annual budget). Funding is competitive via an online application portal with annual deadlines and includes non-financial supports and employee engagement components.
