Over the past two years, the power of kindness in our communities has become more palpable than ever. And our Aerie<\/a> fam (that means YOU!) is a constant source of inspiration for us at Aerie<\/a> thanks to your endless positivity and kindness.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Helping out is relevant year-round, but especially so during the holiday season, when we gather together to celebrate our loved ones and communities. To honor the importance of sharing kindness, we\u2019re proud to partner this season with Feeding America\u00ae<\/a> in order to help in the fight to end hunger. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Founded in 1979, Feeding America<\/a> is the nation\u2019s largest domestic hunger-relief organization. Through a network of 200 food banks, the organization provides food for 40 million people at risk of hunger, including 12 million children and 7 million seniors. Last year, AE & Aerie and our customers donated a total of 15.8 million meals to Feeding America to support people in need across the country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now through 11.14, in honor of World Kindness Day<\/a> on 11.13, every AE & Aerie purchase will provide 5 meals to individuals in need through Feeding America. Want to give even more throughout the season? You can donate a dollar at checkout in-stores or online now through 12.24! Each dollar donated provides 10* meals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
