Celebrating Black History Month

In 2020, we committed to doing our part to fight for a brighter future for our Black and minority communities. We started with ourselves, and now we continue that work with you. 

We believe in a world in which all women and children live their brightest, healthiest, and most empowered lives – and we recognize that our Black communities face a unique set of challenges in achieving this. 

This February, we invite you to join us for Black History Month, a time to celebrate and support the outstanding work of our Black communities throughout our nation’s history.  

Get to know a few of our partners doing that outstanding work: 

The Conscious Kid

is an education, research, and policy organization dedicated to equity and promoting healthy racial identity development in youth. They support organizations, families, and educators in taking action to disrupt racism in young children. 

 

Code2College 

is partnering with volunteers from all over the world to dramatically increase the number of minority and low-income high school students who enter and excel in STEM undergraduate majors and careers through afterschool coding education, professional development, ongoing mentorship and placement into paid, summer internships with leading Tech companies. 

 

Ripple Reads 

is the free monthly newsletter that gets families educated, excited, and empowered to stand up for racial justice! They make it easier for you to make anti-racism a part of your family's identity with a new book recommendation, family discussion guide, activities, and other content, delivered directly to your inbox every month. 

DivInc 

inspires, empowers, and enables underrepresented founders to build successful high growth businesses, creating a more authentically inclusive environment in the entrepreneur tech ecosystem. 

 

For the month of February, 20% of proceeds from our Grayson Navy Cord Friendship Bracelet in Abalone will support initiatives that help our Black communities live their brightest, healthiest, and most empowered lives.
