We’ve been blown away by the examples of generosity and kindness that are at the heart of so many brands in the community. We asked some of the most giving entrepreneurs and leaders we know to tell us about how they think about the practice of donating a percentage of sales.

When I founded Corvid Cycles in 2018, I did so with a simple mission: to build custom bicycles for every body. The intentional use of “every body” instead of “everybody” was a recognition that we are all different sizes and shapes, with different abilities, but that one’s differences should not prevent them from having a well-fitting bike that suits their needs. It was also a nod to the long term goal of mine to build adaptive cycles for cyclists with unique physical needs. Read more>>

Into our second year of business now, we are excited and hopeful to be able to launch a new program in the coming months through which we will be donating a portion of our profits and also making it possible for our clients to make donations toward helping to feed local children in need through a partnership with Denton’s Lovepacs.

My way of donating is a bit different than just handing someone some money and walking away. I want to be able to give back by giving an experience that will be memorable for everyone involved in the donation including myself. I don’t make it obvious that I’m donating.. I normally hear about someones story and take it upon myself to personally reach out offering a free photoshoot. For example, about 2-3 years ago a story was going around my tiny town that a young child had cancer. Read more>>

Donating a percentage of my sales to different organizations I believe in is an important part of being an artist for me. I see it as my way to use my privilege to give back and support others. I recently donated a NFT art sale (part of the METAPride Campaign) to Outright Intl. Another interesting way to give back through cryptocurrency. Read more>>

One thing we love to do at Shōjō Beer Co is giving back to the community. The way we do this (beyond working with Samurai Piggy & Friends, the 501(c)3 that we own) is by giving back to different non-profits every single time we do a new release with one of our beers. Read more>>

I aim to maintain 2 axe raffles a year with proceeds going to charities. One is for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and the other is sort of a floater for any cause I believe needs the help that year. Read more>>
