CREED & Charity

Tuesday, May 25th, 2010

During its 250 years, CREED has been a loyal supporter of the communities in which it does business. As CREED is a very small, independent, family-run company that produces all of its products by hand in France, CREED’s support many times takes the form of a special item presented for a charity auction. For example, CREED flacons, perhaps signed by a member of the CREED family, offered with CREED shatterproof atomizers, are examples of such donations.

CREED Responds to Haitian Quakes

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

Over the years, CREED has been a proud trading partner of Haiti, buying Haitian vetiver grass, the essence of which is extracted in CREED’s workshop in France for our beloved Original Vetiver fragrance.  Now, in Haiti’s troubled times, CREED is responding to the earthquakes’ devastation by donating five percent of proceeds from sales of this site, www.creedboutique.com, CREED’s official and exclusive online store, to Haitian relief.

On the advice of experts and observers now working in the quake zone in Haiti, CREED has chosen ADRA (www.adra.org) and its Haitian Earthquake Response Fund as the channel for support to Haiti.  Among other endeavors, ADRA is working in the area of water purification — making undrinkable water safe to drink.

ADRA has committed to donate 100 percent of its Haitian Earthquake Relief Fund to the immediate and long-term development of Haiti.

CREED is pleased to support ADRA’s efforts to avert a further humanitarian crisis in Haiti, and we hope you will join us.
