We stand with our our anti-racist community. We do not tolerate the murdering of Black people at the hands of police. We are doing the work at home, having the conversations with our children and family to raise awareness and discuss our intolerance for racism.

It is imperative that we all do the work together to end the institutionalized and systemic racism that has been woven into the fabric of our country. We need to vote for politicians with agendas that hold people accountable for their actions. We will continue to speak out against injustice.

In addition to our monetary support of land conservation organizations that we contribute towards monthly, a portion of all sales for June and July will be donated to the Black Women’s Blueprint, Black Lives Matter, ACLU and NAACP. Learn more about our yearly charitable and non-profit donations here.

We urge our colleagues, friends and family to consider donating to any of the organizations linked below and to make it a priority to continue to discuss being actively anti-racist with your family and community.

Keep the conversation going and donate if you can…

Let the strivings of us all prove Martin Luther King Jr. to have been correct, when he said that humanity can no longer be tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war. Let the efforts of us all prove that he was not a mere dreamer when he spoke of the beauty of genuine brotherhood and peace being more precious than diamonds or silver or gold. Let a new age dawn.
— Nelson Mandela, December 1993, Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech
