“Collectivism, the desire to care for our community as it is ourself, is the natural human state. It is what creates necessary conditions for happiness.”
Community Partners
Land Rent
10% of our profit will go to Spirit of the Sun, a local Indigenous women-led nonprofit working to empower Native communities.
Reparations
10% of our profit will go to Soul2Soul Sisters, a local Black Womxn-led organization that provides programs focusing on Black Womxn's healing & health, reparations, Black voter engagement, and ending anti-Black racism.
Community Group Spotlight
As part of our structure, 30% of the profit from the RISE TOGETHER! collection, as well as additional funds generated through event donations, go to a local community group. We choose a new community group to spotlight bi-yearly through a democratic member vote. Our selected partner for June-Dec 2021 is The Mestaa'ehehe Coalition.
The Mestaa'ehehe Coalition has been fighting hard to back efforts to rename sacred spaces in Colorado that currently have harmful monikers to ones that are empowering. The Mestaa'ėhehe Coalition is a collaborative effort among tribal representatives from the Northern and Southern Hinono'eiteen and Tsétsêhéstâhese, Indigenous leaders and non-profits, and allies in Colorado.
Help advance these tribal lead efforts!
