What Is the Cause?
With proms across the country being canceled due to school shutdowns and social distancing, Ugg is bringing a prom where anyone no matters their gender or orientation will be welcomed.
The brand will also be joining forces with its global partner GLAAD (formerly the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation), a nonprofit working towards acceptance and advancing LGBTQ+ equality. Ugg is set to donate $125,000 in 2020 to support the organization’s culture-changing programs, including the GLAAD Media Institute.
