Being a public benefit corporation underscores Warby Parker's commitment to purpose and its stakeholders. This legally binding status holds Warby Parker to an even higher standard of transparency and accountability—and allows leadership and its board of directors to make decisions taking into account the interests of all of stakeholders, including its community. The Company believes that its public benefit status also serves as an additional way of furthering its goals and mission while driving long-term sustainability and profitability.

Launch of The Warby Parker Impact Foundation: In celebration of Warby Parker's direct listing, the Company publicly launched the Warby Parker Impact Foundation in the fall of 2021. As a 501(c)(3) public charity, the foundation's mission is to advocate for wider access to vision services, educate communities on the importance of eye health, and provide people with the eye care they need to lead safe, happy, and productive lives. In 2021, Warby Parker was incredibly proud to authorize up to 1% of the company's outstanding shares for future grants to the foundation or other like-minded charitable organizations.
