Hublot and KIDS EARTH FUND (KEF)
Hublot, led by its CEO Jean-Claude Biver, was one of the first luxury brands to take action for tragic disaster. Just after the chaos, by launching a campaign on its official website to raise funds to Red Cross Society for support. Then Hublot donated 10,000 sets of coloured pencil to KEF to support their activities. The heart-warming gifts had been brought to the children by KEF and they are helpfully used in consecutive drawing workshops in Tohoku areas. On the occasion of the opening ceremony of first-ever boutique in Japan in Ginza, special and unique items donated from Hublot ambassadors, such as Diego Maradona, Manchester United and so on, were auctioned to raise fund for KEF. Hublot also donated all the proceeds from auctions to KEF.
