The Walt Disney Company has announced it will donate $5 million toward nonprofit groups that advance social justice. That donation begins with a $2 million pledge to the NAACP.
“The killing of George Floyd has forced our nation to once again confront the long history of injustice that black people in America have suffered, and it is critical that we stand together, speak out and do everything in our power to ensure that acts of racism and violence are never tolerated,” said Bob Chapek, Chief Executive Officer, The Walt Disney Company. “This $5 million pledge will continue to support the efforts of nonprofit organizations such as the NAACP that have worked tirelessly to ensure equality and justice.”
Disney has also said that through the Disney Employee Matching Gifts program, Cast Members and other employees are able to help considerably. They will be able to donate to eligible organizations, and Disney will match their contributions.
