For every item sold, this collection provides meals to a food bank in the local community we deliver to.

WHY

With food insecurity sky rocketing during the COVID-19 pandemic, businesses turned to their communities for donations to help those in need. But what were businesses doing with these donations—where was the money going, and who was it benefitting? This murkiness was the catalyst that set our IMPACT Collection in motion.

Food insecurity is seen and felt in all parts of America, and negatively impacts all races and ethnicities. More than 34 million in the United States are food insecure. That’s 10.2% of U.S. households. More recent economic conditions have not made matters easier. Record-high inflation and rising food prices have stretched many Americans incredibly thin.  

Those who are food insecure should be able to leverage their local food bank to help them bridge the gap between not having enough food and having just enough. At the same time, food banks should have the resources they need to serve the communities they operate in. Because when you cannot guarantee where your next meal will be, it’s hard to live a full and meaningful life - and no one should go hungry or be hungry in nations as advanced and wealthy as ours.

HOW

When you purchase an item from this collection, we locate a food bank in your specific community. We first search for food banks that are a part of the Feeding America network. When you receive your item, we'll let you know the exact # of meals that will be donated on your behalf and the exact food bank in your local community that your order will benefit. At the end of the quarter, we'll email you to confirm your impact has been carried out.

Through the first quarter of 2023, we’ve donated over 70,000 meals across the United States and internationally. All of our food bank partners play integral roles in the communities they serve, and we are so proud to partner with them.
