Making A Difference
People are at the heart of everything we do. Through our Making a Difference programme, we support causes that positively impact our communities. This programme helps us give back in the following ways:
Product Giveback
Each year, Stampin’ Up! supports charitable organisations in the countries where we do business by donating a portion of the proceeds from a limited-time product offer or promotion. In 2024, we’ll donate a portion of the proceeds from the sales of Sentimental Christmas Designer Series Paper (item 164209) to children’s literacy programmes.
Heart of Stampin' Up!
To create lasting impact and maximise the efforts of our community, Stampin’ Up! works with demonstrators and employees to make a difference in their communities. Any demonstrator or employee can apply for a sponsorship to support a cause they’re passionate about.
Our 2023–2024 recipients of the Heart of Stampin’ Up! award include demonstrators Kimberly Walker (Brachial Plexus Network) and Christine Bertram (Wounded Warrior Project), as well as employee Sharie OwYoung (Lucky Fin Project). To see how the Heart of Stampin’ Up! award will support these amazing difference makers and their organisations in 2024, search #SUDifferenceMaker on Instagram and Facebook.
Day of Service
During our annual Stampin’ Up! Day of Service, all our employees worldwide participate in service activities to help their local communities. We know we are stronger when we work together, so we encourage everyone–demonstrators and customers included–to find a way to serve on this day. Our next Day of Service will be on 12 June 2024.
See how we made a difference during Day of Service 2023.
Incentive Trip Service Project
Every year, Stampin’ Up! demonstrators have the opportunity to earn an exciting incentive trip*. Along with entertainment and relaxation, the incentive trip includes a service project to support a cause in the local area.
In 2024, we’ve partnered with an organisation in Playa del Carmen, Mexico, called Keeping Kids in School (KKIS), which provides financial assistance, community connections, and educational opportunities for students in Mexico. Stampin’
Up! demonstrators that achieved the incentive trip are invited to participate in a donation drive to provide these students with much-needed school supplies so that they can excel in their education.
*Fewer than 1% of Stampin’ Up!’s demonstrators worldwide achieve this extraordinary milestone.
Demonstrator Philanthropic Events
Stampin’ Up! demonstrators host multiple philanthropic events in their local communities throughout each year. We are grateful to be part of a community that lives the Stampin’ Up! values and makes a difference in so many meaningful ways.
We encourage demonstrators and customers to support these efforts and share events they’ve led or participated in by using #SUDifferenceMaker on their social media channels.
