’Tis the season to give back!

As the year draws to a close and the holidays approach, it’s easy to get swept up in the familiar rush of celebrations, traditions, and to-do lists. But at UP THERE, EVERYWHERE, we believe this season is also about something deeper: the power of giving back.

This year, we’re shifting the spotlight to the incredible charitable efforts of our own people around the globe. From volunteering at local food banks to supporting underfunded non-profits through pro bono work, our community is driven by a shared purpose - to make the world a little brighter for those who need it most. These aren’t grand gestures; they’re real, heartfelt contributions made by people who see the value in lifting others up, especially during this time of year.

On this page, we'll be shining a light on these inspiring initiatives. Each story reveals not just what we do, but why we do it - whether it’s empowering underrepresented voices, driving sustainability efforts, or offering time and expertise to causes close to our hearts. It’s our way of showing that meaningful change begins with small, intentional acts of kindness.

We hope these stories inspire you as much as they do us. The holiday spirit isn’t just about giving presents! That’s why we’re teaming up with Evertreen to plant trees and help transform the world, one tree at a time. With our roots in Sweden, surrounded by forests, this feels like the perfect way to give back. Keep reading to find out how you can be part of it!

Season's Greetings from all of us at UP

They are hidden somewhere in our festive 2024 Season’s Greetings artwork, they need your help to be found.

Here’s how it works:
1️⃣ Spot them in the graphic
2️⃣ Tell us what colours they’re wearing
3️⃣ We’ll plant a tree on your behalf!

It’s as simple as that.

UP has teamed up globally with Evertreen, whose mission is to transform the world, one tree at a time. With our roots in Sweden, surrounded by forests, this appeals to us. So, join us as we celebrate the season of giving. Together, we can spread a little light, plant trees, watch them grow — and bring more hope across the globe.
