ABOUT TENT
Founded in 2015 by Hamdi Ulukaya, the Tent Foundation is mobilizing the private sector to improve the lives and livelihoods of the more than 20 million men, women, and children forcibly displaced from their home countries.
As traditional actors struggle to cope with the global refugee crisis ? with ever-increasing numbers of refugees, displaced for longer periods of time ? it is clear that businesses have a more important role than ever before. Tent works with businesses to help them develop and implement tangible commitments to support refugees. Tent believes that businesses have the greatest impact when they treat refugees not as victims, but as economically-productive workers, suppliers, entrepreneurs and customers ? and when they leverage their core business operations to hire refugees, integrate refugees into supply chains, invest in refugees, and deliver services to them.
