Change Lives

Why do we fund children's education?
Because we believe in ethical consumerism. It’s not enough to choose products that benefit us personally—they should also be good for the planet and society. Each of us can make a small difference, and together, we can create a big impact!
Our vision is bold: a world where no child, anywhere, is out of school.
We believe education is the key to empowering generations, especially in underprivileged communities, to build brighter futures—for themselves and, ultimately, for all of us.

What do the numbers reveal about children without access to education?
Out of the world’s 2.2 billion children, an alarming 258 million are denied the opportunity to go to school (source: UNESCO).

Do we fund individual students or schools?
Through our Schooldays Program, we collaborate with small non-profits dedicated to breaking down the barriers that keep underprivileged children in developing countries from accessing education.

As responsible global citizens, we exclusively support fully accredited projects with proven, tangible benefits and rigorous standards in financial accountability, governance, and operational transparency. Our due diligence involves thorough assessments both locally and internationally, including regular in-person visits and careful vetting of potential partners.

How does the Schooldays Program work?
Our Education Partners tackle the shared goal of enabling children to attend school, approaching it from various angles. This support can include providing transportation for rural students, covering teacher salaries, funding school lunches, paying tuition fees, offering personal hygiene solutions for girls to ensure they don’t miss school during their menstrual cycle, and enhancing access to technology and Zoom tutoring sessions.
We measure our impact in tangible, real-life outcomes: the number of school days our funding makes possible. That’s why we call it Schooldays.

Why don’t we support education closer to home?
Our focus is on maximizing the impact of every dollar we contribute, which is often more achievable in countries where the cost of living—and education—is significantly lower than in the U.S.

For example, funding a school day for a 10-year-old in Uganda requires far fewer resources than supporting similar initiatives in the U.S., allowing us to make a greater impact with the same amount.
Globally, we see improving education for children—especially girls—in developing countries as an urgent priority.
Empowering these children has a transformative ripple effect, uplifting not just individual lives and communities but creating a positive impact on the world as a whole.

What is our monetary contribution?
We commit a minimum of 2% of our total annual global sales—not just profits—directly to our Schooldays Program. And don’t worry, we’ll never ask you to contribute an extra penny when you buy our products.
We’ve got it covered, donating to these impactful causes based on our sales.
