Corporate culture
Indigo believes in giving back to the community and its stakeholders. In 2004, it created the Indigo Love of Reading Foundation to provide high-needs elementary schools with new books and learning materials to encourage literacy. It commits $1.5 million annually to schools across Canada through money raised by customers, staff, suppliers and proceeds from Love of Reading fundraising efforts. 100% of the monies collected are distributed to the schools while operating costs for the Foundation are absorbed by Indigo. Since inception, $28 million has been collected and distributed to over 3000 school libraries across Canada. Additionally, Indigo’s month- long annual Adopt a School program allows each store to collect donations during that period and apply them to a local school.
