Making Beauty Count: How Your Impact Makes A Difference
Giving has been a fundamental pillar of our brand from the start. When Karissa Bodnar founded Thrive Causemetics® in 2014, she envisioned a shift in the beauty industry and beyond, where products could create meaningful change, either through carefully curated formulas and ingredients, community engagement, or both.
Fast forward nine years, on the heels of the industry’s busiest sales season, and we are in absolute awe of what we’ve accomplished together. This Giving Tuesday, we’re sharing our collective efforts—fueled by you—to support communities around the country because, let's face it, making a difference is the real heart of our Thrive Causemetics® family.
How We Give Back
When you choose Thrive Causemetics®, you're not just buying makeup and skincare—every item you purchase is a tangible step toward making real impact in countless lives. So far in 2023, we’ve donated $29 million in products and funds thanks to each and every one of you—our community. That money went on to support 128 nonprofit organizations, with 52 new Giving Partners joining the family. And while giving happens every day around here, we’re excited to share a bit about what we’ve been up to with your support—and what we have planned for Giving Tuesday.
A Glimpse into Giving in 2023
On the Ground on Giving Tuesday
Today, Team Thrive Causemetics® is mobilizing in Los Angeles and Seattle to support two incredible Giving Partners:
Beauty 2 The Streetz is a Los Angeles-based organization that serves the homeless by providing the essentials—the things that feel inherently human, like hot showers, hearty meals, and a touch of the extras like hair color, makeup, and wigs.
Mary’s Place is an organization based in Seattle, Washington, and was our first Giving Partner in support of those facing homelessness. They operate around the state, offering a drop-in women’s day center and five 24/7 shelters that provide a warm bed, three meals, and a community of support for roughly 500 family members each night.
Our Giving Partners mean so much to us, and we’re grateful to collaborate with them and support their communities, not just on Giving Tuesday but year-round. Get a behind-the-scenes look at how we support these incredible organizations—and others—on our social channels @thrivecausemetics.
