Cherokee Uniforms (a Careismatic Brand designer, manufacturer, and distributor of medical wear) joins hands with One Heart Movement, a non-profit organization committed to making the world a kinder place, to honor the selfless efforts of healthcare workers globally who lost their lives in the pandemic, by donating 115,000 trees.
Annually, these trees are estimated to benefit the planet in the following ways:
1. By releasing: 11500 tons of oxygen, equivalent to the yearly oxygen consumption of 14,000 people
2. By absorbing: 2875 tons of carbon dioxide, equivalent to having 625 less cars on the roads
3. By reforesting: Over 107,600 square feet of land, the size of 284 football fields
This is also the first major collaboration to expand the One Heart Forest initiative since its announcement on World Environment Day in June 2021. The One Heart Movement, on the other hand, will continue to raise funds for its goal of planting 5 million trees around the world in honor of every healthcare worker that succumbed to the pandemic.
Krista Kleiner, founder & executive director of the One Heart Movement, said “We are so grateful and excited to have Careismatic Brands and Cherokee Uniforms on board to support the One Heart Forest,”
She went on to add, “The One Heart Movement was inspired by the valiant efforts of healthcare workers who have put themselves on the line to save others over the course of the pandemic.
“As we have expanded to support additional local and global causes, including unification, mental health, racial injustice, empowering women and caring for our environment, we are glad we can honor the sacrifices of these healthcare professionals while bridging our environmental crisis with something more relatable—human connection.”
This collaboration will take place with Careismatic Brand’s new medical apparel launch, Euphoria by Cherokee Uniforms. Euphoria is a new collection of nature-inspired scrubs made with Sorona, a plant-based fabric that’s softer, more breathable and form-flattering.
“Together with The One Heart Movement, we are literally planting the seeds of care for future generations in the One Heart Forest, while also honoring the worldwide healthcare community,” says Michael Singer, CEO of Careismatic Brands Inc.
“These selfless individuals have repeatedly put themselves on the line to save patient lives throughout the pandemic. This forest is not only a dedication to those we have lost on the front lines, it also is planting seeds of hope in the fight against climate change.
“All of us at Careismatic Brands are deeply honored to support The One Heart Movement and its powerful mission.”
The One Heart Forest was launched by One Heart Movement to aid in the United Nations Trillion Tree Campaign while providing sustainable livelihood among other benefits that contribute to the ultimate goal of building a happy and unified world.
