Boxed.com teams with Unilever to support women on Giving Tuesday

NEW YORK — Online club retailer Boxed.com is partnering with Unilever to deliver everyday essentials from Dove, Caress, Ponds, and Simple to women's shelters across the country this Giving Tuesday.

The retailer will team up on the effort with WIN (formerly Women in Need), the largest provider of shelter for homeless families in New York City.

"We are proud to be working with Unilever to provide these everyday items to women's shelters across the country," says Nitasha Mehta, associate director of Reengagement Marketing at Boxed. "We love delivering joy every day but never more so than when we can have a real impact on the lives of women and children in need."

This is not the first time Boxed has taken a stand for women. Earlier this year, Boxed reduced the sales tax amount from the list price on feminine hygiene products that are subject to a luxury tax, such as tampons and pads, and also decreased the cost of certain women's products where price is shown to be greater than the male equivalent.

Founded in 2013, Boxed has taken the elements of the wholesale shopping experience and folded it into one mobile app that allows consumers direct-to-their-door access to all of their favorite warehouse club products, without membership fees.
