kind cotton
Be Kind. Simple, right? Kindness is the most basic human right we should all agree on. But kindness needs to be more than just pleasantries. Kind Cotton believes kindness must be rooted in justice & action. They believe in challenging one another to do better and using our voices to ignite change to create a more kind world. Each item sold directly impacts a child by providing a book through our reading program. A wide variety of products available.
1 item = 1 book donated
PuraVida
PuraVida’s woven, braided, and beaded bracelets make it easy to accentuate your style with a combination of color and style options to choose from to fit your personality. But the best part about these bracelets is that some of the bracelet styles belong to the Charity Collection, where the bracelet represents a particular cause that the sale gives back to--like the Mental Health Awareness bracelet. Purchase one of their products and show your solidarity to a cause while giving back!
toms
Toms was an early adopter of the One for One model of giving back, donating a pair of shoes for every pair purchased. Their giving model has since evolved--they now donate $1 for every $3 they earn from product purchases. Some of these funds are still used to donate shoes, while the rest is distributed to humanitarian organizations through their Global Giving Fund.
BOMBAS
Bombas believes a more comfortable world is a better world. Everyone, no matter their circumstances, deserves to put on clean clothes that feel good. So they've perfected socks, underwear, and t-shirts you’ll want to live in. Created apparel you’ll never want to take off. For every item you purchase for yourself, they donate an item to someone affected by homelessness.
prosperity
candle
Support women refugees in the US.
Not only do their candles smell wonderful, but their mission is even better. Each candle is ethically-made by women artisans and refugees here in the U.S. They never add any dyes or enhancers, and each is poured with all-natural soy & coconut waxes, pure cotton and wood wicks, and premium fragrances made with essential oils.
S'WELL
In the world of reusable water bottles, S’well’s styles stand out because they have committed over $1 million to UNICEF’s work to provide safe water, sanitation, and hygiene to vulnerable communities around the world. So sip in style and contribute to a good cause when you purchase one of their products!
thrive
causemetics
Thrive Causmetic's mission is "Bigger than Beauty" For every product you purchase, they donate to help women thrive. They believe in responsive giving so they can support women in the most meaningful way possible. Beyond that the products are vegan and do not have any harmful chemicals added to them.
two blind
brothers
Two Blind Brothers makes ultra soft designer clothing from natural fibers for the sole purpose of funding blindness research. At a young age, owners, Bradford and Bryan Manning were both diagnosed with an eye disease that causes blindness over time. This condition has inspired a special vigilance for details, a passion that carries over into the construction of their clothing line. They donate 100% of profits at the end of the year to charitable foundations, programs, and researchers focused on their mission.
