Protests continue across the US in response to George Floyd's death, and businesses are speaking up by showing their support for the Black Lives Matter movement. We want to highlight brands that are taking action and showing solidarity with the Black community, so we're spotlighting companies donating money to important causes like the NAACP Legal Defence and Educational Fund, the Equal Justice Initiative, Reclaim the Block, the ACLU, The Bail Project, and many more worthy organisations.
Join us in recognising brands that are working to make a difference in these challenging times. Take a moment to see which brands are stepping forward and making tangible contributions to the Black Lives Matter movement. Though it may feel small, thoughtfully shopping is important right now and we appreciate that these companies are using their influence to be part of progress.
