Supporting Nonprofits
From February – July, we will be collecting wooden tokens, representing each “refund dime,” to support the critical work of these nonprofit organizations:
Animal Outlook:
Exposing truth and inspiring change. Animal Outlook is a national 501 © (3) animal advocacy organization based in Washington, DC. Working to end animal abuse since 1995, Animal Outlook exposes cruelty to farmed animals and promotes a vegan (plant-based) lifestyle. Their mission is to build a kinder world for all animals.
Black Women Build:
Founded in 2017, Black Women Build-Baltimore believes in the power of knowledge and skills and opportunity to shape a woman’s life. This 501© (3) tax-exempt organization offers its holistic training program to capable women who are ready for change, and would not otherwise have the opportunity. The training program focuses on three parts: Training, Support & Home Ownership Opportunities.
Audubon Society of Central Maryland:
ASCM is a 501© (3) non-profit organization founded in 1985 with a mission to protect and restore birds, other wildlife, and their habitats through education and action, for the benefit of people and the earth.
….
All of the “dimes” will be tallied and donations will made to the charities thanks to your generosity! Beginning August 1, 2021 we will collect for three new organizations. It’s completely up to you whether you’d like to keep your reusable bag refund or donate it to charity.
Be on the lookout for our charity collection bins, and think about giving back!
