First Responders: adidas 40% Off, Reebok 50% Off, The North Face

Original Post

Lots of companies are already helping to support coronavirus relief efforts, offering millions in donations or using their resources to make supplies like masks and hand sanitizer. But many brands are now also giving thanks directly to the people putting themselves on the line to fight the pandemic, with special discounts for essential workers.

That means that if you're a medical professional or first responder, you can find savings on a variety of products that might make life a little easier right now. Most discounts can be found on shoes and athletic apparel, which makes sense given that many of these workers are on their feet all day and require comfortable, supportive clothing.

If you want to help, but you're not sure how, there are plenty of companies that put the power in your hands. While you can always donate to local food banks or charities, I've found a few brands that combine giving and shopping by donating proceeds to relief efforts. So whether you need shoes, clothes, a phone cleaner or even a massage gun, consider checking out some of these brands that are helping coronavirus relief efforts.

Most discounts extend to all hospital staff and first responders (including police, firefighters and EMTs). Teachers are eligible for plenty of deals as well, as are some retirees. If you've been involved at all in helping curb the pandemic, it's definitely worth looking into the deals below to see if you qualify for special savings.

Do note that these discounts all require proof of eligibility, either through emailed documentation or verification via a service like ID.me or SheerID. Instructions are included on all the discount pages linked below.

Even if you're not eligible for these discounts, you might want to support these retailers to thank them for providing tangible support to the people on the front lines.

Not everyone, however, believes that two negatives necessarily make a positive.

I think that downvoting this post is a really bad way to say THANK YOU to our FRONTLINE essential workers critical to keeping society functioning, making sure that every one of us is safe, healthy, and has access to all of the resources we need.

"Downvoting prompts a kind of gamification. I don't imagine that users are going to be sensitive to all of the semantics of the things posted in this post and know how to use Vote Up and Down Vote appropriately."
