Giving Back
LocalWe is a socially conscious business. In addition to supporting jobs and communities by helping people to buy from local Artisans and small businesses throughout the U.S., a portion of LocalWe's own profits goes to benefit charitable organizations and community causes. We not only give money, but also our time to support these causes.
Many of the manufacturers that LocalWe works with also directly support community causes. That is one of our favorite qualities that we look for when searching for manufacturers to be included on the site.
LocalWe’s socially conscious efforts are focused on helping children in need to realize their full potential. We currently support:
Big Brothers Big Sisters of America
Big Brothers Big Sisters' mission is to provide children facing adversity with strong and enduring, professionally supported one-to-one relationships that change their lives for the better, forever.
Family Promise’s mission is to help homeless and low-income families achieve sustainable independence through a community-based response.
The Flemington Area Food Pantry provides food and personal care items to needy families regardless of race, religion, or ethnic background.
The Homeless Solutions philosophy is “A Hand Up, Not A Handout,” and since 1983 they have been offering shelter, services and supportive housing to the homeless and working poor in Morris County, New Jersey.
Here are some of the organizations that are supported by our manufacturers:
Arthritis National Research Foundation
Girl Scouts of the Sierra Nevada
Pet Alliance of Greater Orlando
Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation
