Supports Charity
Shop by category
According to a 2018 study, 79 percent of Americans are more loyal to purpose-driven brands than traditional brands—and they feel a deeper connection to these companies, too. This isn’t exactly surprising when you think about it. Wouldn’t most of us prefer to see our hard-earned dollars do more for the world? And it’s reassuring to know we’re not alone in our desire to expand our purchasing power by helping others. An increasing selection of brands are teaming up with charities in an effort to give back. That means that with every purchase of these trusted products, you’re supporting important social causes as well.
What Does it Mean When a Brand Supports a Charity?
Brands that support charities have taken a more socially responsible approach to the way they conduct business by linking up with charitable organizations that aim to make the world a better place. These companies support selected nonprofits in a variety of ways—donating a portion of their sales to meaningful causes, donating products to those in need, and partnering with organizations for specific social initiatives are just a few examples.
Benefits of Shopping Brands That Support Charities
When you purchase a brand that supports a charity it means your money is stretching beyond the product sale and benefiting someone or something in need (you might call that a two-for-one deal). Chances are, you’ll feel more loyal and engaged with that brand, and more likely to shop it again in the future. And your purchase may have even greater implications. By choosing to shop brands that support charities, you encourage non-charitable brands to be more socially driven in the hopes of capturing your business. That’s a win for everyone.
Tips for Finding Brands That Support Charities
Ensuring you’re putting your money toward a greater good with every purchase has never been easier.
