This post rectifies the fact that there is currently no mention of Good.store on the Forum. According to their site:
[Good.store is] a place where you can get everyday products… and donate to charity while you’re at it… To date [we’ve raised] more than $10 million in donations, and we’re just getting started…
All of the profits from Sun Basin Soap and the Awesome Socks Club are donated to Partners In Health to fund the Maternal Center of Excellence in Sierra Leone, which provides best-in-class medical care to mothers and children in a region with one of the highest maternal mortality rates in the world.
All of the profits from Keats & Co [coffee & tea] are donated to Partners In Health to treat tuberculosis in Lesotho. Tuberculosis is the world’s deadliest disease, and yet it is preventable. This is why we’re working to provide long-term funding for tuberculosis in some of the world’s most affected regions.
All of the profits from our newest collection, EcoGeek are donated to the Coral Reef Alliance, specifically the Maui Watershed Restoration Project.
I don’t drink caffeine, but I bought holiday gifts of tea, coffee, and soap for my family.
I also just switched to Who Gives a Crap for my toilet paper needs:
…we donate 50% of our profits to help build toilets and improve sanitation in the developing world.
I try to buy Newman’s Own when I can (though I’m skeptical about how efficiently the recipients use the funds; it’s still better than a multinational conglomerate profiting).
I’m a big fan of @Brad West🔸’s Profit for Good initiative, and his push for more such entities in the world. I thought people should know these. I don’t have any financial connection with these orgs other than as a customer.
If you have others you like, please add them in a comment. Thanks!

I am currently switching my cleaning products to EcoGeek. I particularly like the fact that everything is concentrated, so they don’t waste resources shipping water.
