As the nation is collectively practicing social distancing and public institutions and establishments temporarily close for the safety of the more vulnerable among us, we here at WW think it’s important t to shed light on positive, responsible actions being carried out throughout the community. Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, many companies are taking a stand to not only support their employees, but to also aid the greater society. Many  brands are donating to help ease testing and vaccination supply costs, while other companies are implementing new programs to further support the world in this time of need. Ranging from fashion to technology, industries across the world are going the extra mile to keep consumers clean and healthy

Medical giant, Johnson & Johnson, is leading the way in donating numerous resources to combat the instantaneous spread of the coronavirus across the world. Similar to other international brands and organizations, Johnson & Johnson has donated 1 million renminbi to the Chinese Red Cross Foundation to pay for supplies and proper equipment for healthcare workers on the frontlines of the pandemic.
