Supporting companies who are creating positive change in the world has always been important to me, but in 2020 that has taken on a whole new meaning! Now with a worldwide pandemic, the Black Lives Matter movement finally at the forefront of change, and so many dealing with economic uncertainty, I feel it is more crucial than ever to highlight companies with a strong sustainability ethos; choosing to use their platform to support these causes, as well as others.
Today, I am sharing some of my favorite brands that continually step up during times of crisis and beyond. These companies do good, and their products are just as amazing as their brand values. It feels good to purchase items that support important causes and these brands are so deserving of glowing praise for their initiatives. Read on to learn more and shop my picks below!
Splendid’s Care Packages
One of my favorite brands, Splendid, is sending cozy care packages as a “thank you” to unsung heroes of the COVID-19 pandemic and sharing a few of their stories on their website. These frontline heroes are nominated by their loved ones, and the stories share how these people have gone above and beyond during this crisis. Bravo! What a splendid initiative!

Ramy Brook’s Healthcare Heroes Registry
Ramy Brook’s Healthcare Heroes Registry offers a chance for us to gift a hero with something they have registered for through the online registry found on their website. And, 20% of the proceeds will be donated to two incredible charities: No Kid Hungry and Jumpstart, who have been continuing to feed, educate, and care for children. Ramy Brook is gifting 1,000 items to healthcare heroes as well.

Grayson’s Banding Together Series
One of my favorite shirt brands, Grayson, has a Banding Together series where they connect with thought leaders in order to share insights on how they are navigating through times of crisis, how they’ve had to pivot to fight for what they’ve built, and how they have found silver linings along the way. The concept behind the initiative is that when we band together and amplify our voices, we can create lasting change because “together we are super powerful.”

Ripley Rader’s Look Good Do Good Masks
I have been a strong advocate for wearing masks since the very beginning, and so has Ripley Rader. For every sequin and chambray mask sold on the Ripley Rader website, they donate two masks to at-risk patients and essential workers in need. And, for every VOTE mask you buy, they donate $2 to When We All Vote, a nonpartisan non-profit dedicated to increasing voter registration.

Hint’s $50,000 Donation
Hint's initiative to donate $50,000 to Campaign Zero and the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, two organizations creating real change in the world, was so inspiring! Also, through their partnership with the Frontline Impact Project and their donations to hospitals, firehouses, and police departments, this delicious water brand is keeping our essential workers healthy and hydrated too!

Sweaty Betty’s donations to United Way Worldwide’s COVID-19 Fund
As a big Sweaty Betty fan, I was so happy to see that they recently teamed up with Women’s Health to create an exclusive Euphoria Short Sleeve Workout T-Shirt, with 100% of profits from the sales going to United Way Worldwide’s COVID-19 Community Response and Recovery Fund. A brand helping us to look good while doing good!

Boll & Branch’s Helping From Home Initiative
Boll & Branch recently launched a Helping From Home Initiative through which they donate mattresses and pillows to communities in need during the COVID-19 global pandemic. At last count, they have donated 7,888 new mattresses and pillows, and that number keeps increasing since they have now made this program permanent and are expanding their efforts. I always sleep the very best in my Boll & Branch bedding and now I have another reason to love them!
