Non Profit
As a brand who is passionate about mental health and housing stability, we are in the beginning stages of creating a non-profit organization focused on providing resources for underprivileged women and children. It's a cause that is close to our heart because we've seen firsthand how mental health challenges and unstable living situations can impact a person's life in profound and lasting ways.
By creating a non-profit that provides support and resources to those in need, we believe we can make a positive difference in the lives of others and help build a brighter more stable future.
However, we also understand that starting a non-profit is a significant undertaking that requires careful planning, research, and dedication. We are committed to doing the necessary work to ensure that this organization can make a meaningful impact and truly serve the needs of the women and children we aim to help.
