Donna Rapaccioli, Ph.D., dean of the Gabelli School of Business, added:
“Our partnership with PVH Corp. reflects an innovative model for the
Gabelli School – one that takes a holistic, multi-stakeholder approach
toward creating impact.
“The partnership will prove that two organisations with very similar
values, but in very different industries, can meaningfully connect to
support social and environmental good at a time when we need it most.”
