The supplier partnered with charitable organization Give Back Box to send apparel to refugees and other victims of the war in Ukraine.

A California garment supplier just made a significant contribution to war relief in Ukraine.

Fossa Apparel (asi/55141) in Fremont recently donated six pallets of jackets, with a value of more than $250,000, to Los Angeles-based Give Back Box, an organization committed to large-scale donations from retailers for charitable efforts around the world. The apparel will go to Poland to be distributed among refugees and other victims of the war in Ukraine.

We hope our modest actions will spark more acts of kindness across our community and industry, and we pray that a brighter future will come.”
