Giving Back In A Big Way

This year we decided to give back to our community in a big way. Some of our proceeds from ​EVERY SINGLE​ transaction will be donated to one of the organizations below, and ​YOU​ get to choose which one! Below you will find 6 organizations we partner with and support!

Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter (BARCS)

BARCS is a non-profit organization operating Maryland’s largest animal shelter and pet adoption center. They​ are an open admission shelter, granting refuge to every abandoned, neglected, abused, lost or surrendered animal that comes through their door. A staggering 30 or more animals are surrendered to BARCS every day. No matter what the circumstance, they do not turn away any animal in need of shelter, food, medical care and a loving touch, which is why they are always needing our support and donations!

NAMI Metropolitan Baltimore improves the lives of individuals living with a mental health condition, their families, and communities through education, support, and advocacy. They are an affiliate of the National Alliance on Mental Illness, the nation’s largest grassroots mental health organization. NAMI Metropolitan Baltimore provides services and programs throughout Baltimore City and Baltimore County, reaching more than 6,500 individuals each year.

Living Classrooms Foundation

Living Classrooms Foundation strengthens communities and inspires young people to achieve their potential through hands-on education and job training, using urban, natural, and maritime resources as "living classrooms." Founded in Baltimore in 1985, Living Classrooms Foundation has grown into an educational and economic force that combines one of the city's most cherished assets - its beautiful and historic harbor - with some of its most overlooked - the thousands of bright, ambitious children and young adults who are struggling to succeed against terrible odds. What began with one program in one city has grown into dozens of programs across a region that now encompasses Washington, DC, Virginia, and Maryland.

St. Jude Children's Research Hospital

The mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is to advance cures, and means of prevention, for pediatric catastrophic diseases through research and treatment. Consistent with the vision of their founder Danny Thomas, no child is denied treatment based on race, religion or a family's ability to pay. Discoveries at St. Jude have profoundly changed how doctors treat children with cancer and other catastrophic illnesses. Since St. Jude was established, the survival rate for acute lymphoblastic leukemia, the most common type of childhood cancer, has increased from 4 percent in 1962 to 68 percent today. During this time, the overall survival rate for childhood cancers has risen from 20 percent to 80 percent. St. Jude has treated children from across the United States and from more than 70 countries. Doctors across the world consult with St. Jude on their toughest cases. Also, St. Jude has an International Outreach Program to improve the survival rates of children with catastrophic illnesses worldwide through the transfer of knowledge, technology and organizational skills.
