Our Approach
It might be education for children or housing for women escaping the sex trade, but the premise is still the same, all people everywhere deserve a chance and we believe that there is enough to go around.
To live out our values, Goodsociety gives a quarter of our profits away to local and international development projects. We love seeing the impact that our line can have because of the many people that proudly sport our mighty threads. We also love spending time with each project that we share our resources with. It’s these personal relationships and the goodness we see that inspires us to keep doing what
we are going.
Giving profits is the result of our approach, not the beginning of it. Our approach begins with independent farmers in India, trained in organic and sustainable production methods. Our supplier supports roughly a thousand cotton farmers, eliminating pesticide and fertilizer use and enhancing quality. A guaranteed purchase agreement with these farmers provides financial opportunity for education, infrastructure, and local development. Factory working conditions of the employees are of sincere conscientious standards. No exploitation. Fair wages. Safe work. No children. This process is formally coined ‘fair trade’.
