9 Brands That Donate to Animal Rescues

The husband-and-wife team of artfully-designed home goods are also the parents of two adopted dogs, and they have continually given back to animal rescues throughout their entrepreneurship. While their proceeds have been distributed amongst many activist nonprofits they believe in, some of their favorite animal-related orgs include Zoos Victoria, WIRES, and Ocean Conservancy.

Pura Vida, makers of stackable, DIY-style friendship bracelets, donate sales from their charity collections to various causes they care about. It means that every time you purchase a charming piece from Animal Awareness, five percent of proceeds are donated to organizations that work towards protecting vulnerable wildlife, like Rainforest Trust, Sea Turtle Conservancy, and The Elephant Sanctuary. 

This bath and beauty company is an OG when it comes to their cruelty-free, handmade products. Buy anything from their Charity Pot collection, and they’ll donate a full 100 percent of proceeds to an org that is “upholding human rights, environmental justice and the protection of animals,” including Beagle Freedom Project, which rescues beagles from inhumane lab testing and research.

If you’re a fan of vodka and pups, grab Tito’s the next time you stock the bar. The distiller’s ongoing Vodka for Dog People program donates to nonprofits supporting pets in threatening situations. Over the past year Tito’s contributed $43K to GeaterGood.org, which provides vet care relief for financially burdened pet owners who are affected by the pandemic. 

Canadian skincare company Grounded Sage is so committed to animal rescues that they have a too-many-to-count list of orgs they have donated to, or continue to donate to, including Bullies In Need, which works to rescue Pit Bulls, and Animal Rescue Foundation of Ontario, which works with the First Nations people to home stray dogs in the area. 

The Virginia-based Sydney Hale Company is an independent home goods brand that produces its own line of candles, hand soaps, room fragrances, and dog accessories entirely by hand. Not only do they donate 10 percent of their profits to animal rescue orgs, Sydney Hale Co. also curates the adorable Insta account @faces_of_rescue, which joyously shouts out “rescued dogs and the people who rescue.”

With a name like n:philanthropy, it’s no secret that doing good is a foundational value of this vegan fashion brand. You can feel good about shopping their collection of essentials — casual tops, relaxed bottoms, chic sweats, day-to-night dresses and jumpsuits, and more — knowing that 10 percent of profits are donated to select orgs, including spcaLA, which cares for abused and abandoned pups, and other animal charities local to their Los Angeles HQ.

If applying cruelty-free beauty products are part of your everyday routine, we recommend checking out 100% Pure’s line of skin, hair, and body products and makeup created from natural fruit dyes.
