THE FOOTWEAR BRAND CELEBRATES THE LAUNCH WITH
DONATION TO SCHOLARSHIP AMERICA TO HELP STUDENTS FULFILL THEIR
COLLEGE DREAMS
GOLETA,
Calif., Aug. 30, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- This fall,
Southern California-based brand
Koolaburra by UGG® (a division of Deckers Brands [NYSE:
DECK]) is excited to introduce our newest back-to-campus style,
Tizzey. To celebrate the launch, Koolaburra by UGG® is donating to
Scholarship America ® – a non-profit organization that helps
students fulfill their college dreams and the nation's leading
provider of private scholarships.
"Partners like Koolaburra by UGG® are essential when it comes to
making college dreams come true," says Scholarship America
President & CEO Mike Nylund. "As
students head back to campus this fall, this kind of generous
private-sector support helps them take the next step toward
fulfilling their goals."
Scholarship America® works to eliminate barriers to educational
success so that any student can pursue their dream. Since its
founding in 1958, the organization has distributed over
$5 billion in scholarships—and it is
now working to make a bigger impact on students in need.
Scholarship America's research has shown that scholarships have the
greatest return on investment for students from historically
marginalized communities who have significant financial need, but
those exact students are the least likely to receive scholarships.
That's why the organization is working to award a majority of its
scholarships to high-need historically marginalized students by
2027, helping them realize the benefits of a high-quality degree or
credential. To help support this mission, Koolaburra by UGG® is
donating $25,000 to Scholarship
America to align with the launch of the brand's newest back to
school style, Tizzey.
Available now, Tizzey ($79.99
MSRP) is a must-have in anyone's fall wardrobe. This wear-anywhere
style features a faux fur collar, lining and sock liner to provide
the ultimate comfort no matter where the day takes you. Available
in an array of colors (black, chestnut, peach whip, wild dove) this
back to campus favorite features an EVA sole that provides the
ultimate versatility making it a go to wardrobe essential. This
slipper is one of the many Koolaburra by UGG® season ready styles
that feature the upmost attention to detail, quality, and
value.
