Brands For A Cause – When Business & Charity Meet

Usually heads of companies get carried away in the competitive markets of today, and forget or lose time enough to be human. Sure, accumulating wealth is a very nice feeling, having enough to spend without worrying to make ends meet, but sharing is what makes us bond.

Sharing and caring is a humane way of showing and expressing love and solidarity. Many companies and organizations around the world are choosing to invest in the development of their surrounding or underprivileged communities around the world. And others are in business just to help.

These three brands have created genius ways of creating  businesses based on charity, benefiting both the companies and the less fortunate.

TOMS is the a company founded to give. Starting in 2006, this genius idea is the perfect merge between charity and business. What makes TOMS so special is that whenever you buy a TOMS product you are being the least selfish, because no matter what you buy, you’re buying something of great value for someone else. If you buy a pair of shoes, you’re buying a child in need a pair as well. If you buy TOMS eye wear, you’re in reality buying eye surgery for someone who needs it. And if you are buying a TOMS bag, you’re helping to train birth attendants and providing essential birth material needed for the safety of both mother and child during delivery.
