Paying Forward
While we are just starting out, we aim to be a business that gives back. We hope to partner with charities and community organisations to uplift others and give back.
For now, we are focused on:
- Donating a portion of proceeds to select charities supporting causes aligned with our values. In 2023, we are proud to donate to [Relevant UK charity] and [Relevant Philippines charity].
- Exploring partnerships with nonprofits dedicated to uplifting Filipino artisans through skills training, access to global markets, education scholarships, and more.
- Finding ways for our team and partners to volunteer time to mentor youth, support environmental initiatives, and drive positive change.
- Operating a sustainable, ethical business that avoids waste, gives fair pay and opportunities, and makes social responsibility a priority in all we do.
In the long run, our goal is to establish an official foundation or formalise our giving programs to make an even bigger impact. We aim to forge partnerships with aligned organisations in the UK and the Philippines to fund programs and initiatives focused on:
- Poverty alleviation
- Youth education and mentorship
- Accelerating careers for artists/artisans
- Environmental conservation
- Humanitarian relief
This is just the start of our journey to create a business that uplifts as it grows. We are committed to doing our part to pay forward the blessings we receive. Please check back on our progress!
