These COVID-19 Brand Campaigns Will Warm Your Heart

Doing the right thing is not always a priority for many brands, especially in the middle of a pandemic where all businesses are suffering greatly. However, these brands manage to think of incredibly innovative and heart-warming campaigns to show their responsibility towards the world.

Didi Hero
In response to Covid-19, Didi has committed $2 million to provide healthcare workers with safe, sanitized and reliable rides at a discounted price. The drivers, called the Hero drivers, are dedicated drivers that have been equipped with proper sanitation and disinfecting products to ensure a safer ride.

Kate Spade x Crisis Text Line
Kate Spade took it to the next level when it comes to supporting healthcare workers. They partner with Crisis Text Line, a global Non-profit Organisation providing free mental health consultation through text messages, to provide 24/7 emotional support from healthcare workers. They have committed $100,000 and are raising funds to keep the program going. Mental health is definitely very important now more than ever especially for front liners that are working non-stop in the pandemic.

It is very important for brands to show their sense of responsibility and compassion in the middle of a crisis such as Covid-19. Whether it’s solely for publicity or they actually care, it warms all of us.
