GIVING BACK

Saving the bees

PERFUMERS NEED HONEY BEES,
BUT SO DOES THE WORLD.

So we donate to one of the world’s leading honeybee research centres: Honey Bee Research Center - University of Guelph.

Since 2007, the world is experiencing a loss of colonies 35% annually, a rate greater than ever before. This crisis is being reported in the Americas as well as Europe and around the world.

Most fragrance ingredients, and most importantly over 75% of the world’s food is a result of bee pollination. Pollination sustains global food security, crop production, farmer livelihoods, ecosystem balance, and clean air.

Honey bees are the most valuable insects to humankind.

And we want to keep them thriving.

What you can do to save honeybees in your little, but important, part of the world:

Plant things that bees like: blue, purple, yellow flowers all attract bees readily.
Have a source of fresh, shallow water like a bird bath.
Eliminate garden pesticides.
Leave flower and vegetable gardens to go to seed in the fall. Seeding plants are the bees’ last chance to store food for the winter, starvation and survive.

Thank you on behalf of the honeybees,
Michel Germain Parfums

GIVING BACK

To frontline workers

UCLA Health is one of many excellent hospitals that provide life-saving services to the community, especially during this overwhelming pandemic. Michel Germain Parfums is proud to be able to donate in a small way to the outstanding efforts provided by frontline workers.

“Happy New Year!

The gift of Michel Germain product was so incredibly welcomed by our healthcare providers here at UCLA Health.

Understandably, we have been engulfed by the surge of the pandemic, but here are a few shots of the product in the hands of our physicians and nurses.

Again, we have such deep gratitude for your incredible support of our frontline healthcare providers.

With deepest appreciation,

Best,”

GIVING BACK

To the community

Scott Mission is one of many excellent charities that provide services to the disadvantaged, homeless, and vulnerable. This mission provides practical, emotional, and spiritual support for thousands of people every year.

Michel Germain Parfums reached out to meet some of the amazing volunteers and clients at Scott Mission. Since socks are the least donated, yet most needed clothing item of the homeless, we donated our “Cozy Socks” to Scott Mission homeless.

It is a pleasure to work with such inspiring people. Thank you for all you do, Scott Mission, and all such charities. We wish all their clients well.

GIVING BACK

To frontline workers

On October 23rd, 2020, Michel Germain Parfums spent the early afternoon at the Alexander Place long term care home within the rural community of Waterdown, Ontario. We had the pleasure of meeting over 100 staff and having the opportunity to give back to our community. We hoped to add a little luxury to their day by gifting a full sized perfume and samples to each staff member.

We are deeply grateful to all the staff and volunteers for all the sacrifices that they are making. Thank you Alexander Place staff for your strength, courage and dedication.

“Thank you again for coming to our home to give back to frontline workers and showing the staff your support. They were all so appreciative of the very generous gift of perfume.”
