Anthropologie Expands National Impact Work with Four New Regional Nonprofit Partners

New Partnerships Deepen Commitment to Arts Education, Women’s Empowerment, and Sustainability

PHILADELPHIA, July 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Anthropologie, the global lifestyle brand, is proud to announce the expansion of its philanthropic program with four new nonprofit partners, each representing a core U.S. region: North Central, East, South, and West. These partnerships build on Anthropologie’s recently announced Philadelphia-based partnerships and mark a significant next step in Anthropologie’s ongoing commitment to creating positive community impact.

The new partners, who were nominated by Anthropologie store teams nationwide, align with Anthropologie’s impact pillars: Arts Education, Women’s Empowerment, and Sustainability.

“At Anthropologie, our stores are not just places of business—they’re deeply rooted in local communities across the country,” said Mindy Massey, Global Executive Director of Retail at Anthropologie Group. “These regional partnerships give our associates a meaningful way to connect with causes that matter in their communities and reflect what we stand for as a brand.”

Each of the following organizations will receive an annual $10,000 donation, along with continued support through employee volunteerism and community engagement opportunities. With thousands of associates across the country and hundreds of stores embedded in local communities, Anthropologie is uniquely positioned to amplify their impact using their retail footprint as a powerful vehicle to bring people together to support these organizations.

Arts Midwest
Arts Midwest advances creativity across the Midwest by supporting artists, funding arts organizations, and strengthening communities through cultural initiatives. Anthropologie’s donation will help reach more than 250,000 artists, arts leaders, and audiences across the Midwest through grants, leadership resources, and storytelling efforts that foster thriving, creative communities.

Mid Atlantic Arts
Mid Atlantic Arts connects people and communities through diverse artistic expression, providing funding and programs that support artists and broaden access to the arts. Support from Anthropologie will help enable over 1,000 artistic performances and engagement events each year, uplifting diverse voices and deepening cultural exchange throughout the Mid-Atlantic region and beyond.

Southern Black Girls & Women’s Consortium
The Southern Black Girls and Women’s Consortium is a collective of Black women leaders funding and uplifting organizations that empower Black girls and women across the Southern U.S. Anthropologie’s support will help provide resources and leadership opportunities to a powerful network of 250+ Black girl and women-led organizations across 13 Southern states.

The Surfrider Foundation
The Surfrider Foundation is an environmental organization dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of the world’s ocean, waves, and beaches for all people through a powerful activist network. Through this partnership, Anthropologie joins Surfrider’s efforts to protect clean water and healthy beaches by advancing grassroots advocacy, science-based solutions, and community education along America’s coastlines.

“This expansion marks a natural evolution of our social impact efforts following the launch of our local Philadelphia partnerships earlier this year,” said Kate Haldy, Head of PR, Communications, and Impact at Anthropologie Group. “By empowering our store teams to identify, nominate, and engage with organizations making a difference in their regions, we’re deepening our commitment to impact, and scaling it in an authentic and community-driven way.”
