Tell me what the Black Friday Fund is and why we do it
Instead of offering a sale on Black Friday, we partner with a factory of ours towards a specific initiative which will better the lives of the factory workers who work there. Last year we partnered with Saitex and built a sustainable farm for factory’s workers meals. A day typically tied with consumerism becomes a day to give back and kick off the holiday season in the best light.
