Ulta Beauty Announces Strategic Mission Focused on Well-Being for Women and Teens - Seite 2

New and Expanded Nonprofit Partnerships in 2024 Focused on Well-Being

• The Ulta Beauty Charitable Foundation is expanding its relationship with Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) to become its national well-being partner and is launching a national point-of-sale donation campaign to bring mental health resources to youth across the country. From May 19 through June 15, guests will have the opportunity to donate to BBBS in Ulta Beauty stores. The donations will be used to help activate Youth Discovery & Wellness resources in 2024, which will reach children and teens (“Littles”) in the program with resources for self-care, self-expression, and self-discovery. To kick off the partnership, Ulta Beauty associates packed 2,000 heath & wellness kits at the company’s Field Leadership Conference in April, which will be distributed to BBBS Littles.

“We are thrilled to partner with the Ulta Beauty Charitable Foundation to create more youth-focused wellness initiatives that promote self-care, self-expression and self-discovery,” said Big Brothers Big Sisters of America President and CEO, Artis Stevens. “In a time where the mental health challenges young people face are increasingly complex, mentorship has proven to be an important part of their overall well-being by helping them reach their potential and lead fulfilling lives. Our approach, which puts youth at the center, relies on the support of communities working together, and partnerships like this one to create a better world through the power of mentorship.”

• The Ulta Beauty Charitable Foundation is issuing $1 million in grants to national nonprofit partners focused on mental health and holistic well-being.
  • The Jed Foundation: The foundation’s grant will bring the organization’s evidence-based mental health and suicide prevention model to 3-4 local community-based youth-serving organizations in 2024-2025.
  • Active Minds: The foundation’s grant will expand Active Minds’ youth-led mental health programs to 300 new schools through a comprehensive high school curriculum, an online mental health resource hub, and leadership development initiatives, aiming to empower students as mental health champions and foster inclusive communities nationwide.
