Let’s Change the World Together, One Order at a Time!

After a much needed break after the holiday season, I started brainstorming ideas for 2021 launches, collection, product ideas, and polishes of the month. While I was working away at restocking and mixing new batches of polishes that sold out, I started thinking about how our world is changing and what I could do to help make a difference in other’s lives. 

One Tree Planted 2020 Impact

Last year I set a promise to donate $1 from every single order that came through the website to One Tree Planted, and guess what, …we raised over $1,000!

That’s 1,111 trees to be planted in the USA, to be exact!

Way to go everyone!!

I am so proud to be cutting this check to such a great organization that helps our planet recover from deforestation, natural disasters, and more. They are rated 100/100 on charity navigator, and the impact from a donation of $100 offsets one year of personal carbon emissions. We offset carbon emissions for the next 11 years! 

And if you check out their Partners Page, our logo shows up now! How cool!

So now, my mission is to use 2021 to donate to a cause again. What do you think, should we stick with planting a tree for every order made on the website, or do you have a better idea? Something local? Something more relevant to our changing world?
