U.S. SOCIAL impact
COVID-19 has changed the way we live, the way we do business, and how we socialize, including redefining the word "community" in times of social distancing. As a social impact business, we're focused outward, by partnering with vulnerable communities, both in Syria and in America. Together, even virtually - a little can go a long way. We have been partnering with nonprofits on a monthly basis to extend our support to the community by donating a percentage of our proceeds to various local non-profits nationwide. With your help, during these challenging times, we can collectively build a virtual “giving community” from East to West. #InthisTogether
