“Viva Glam has never been about one cause, but about supporting vulnerable communities. It was created many years ago simply as a hardship fund for people who needed safety nets. To help people affected by COVID-19 is a continuation of the principles Viva Glam was founded on”, stated Chairman John Demsey. 

Besides the cover crisis the brand has also donated funds to fight the HIV and AIDS crisis
