One Percent for the People

We are proud to announce our new 1% for the People initiative*! Each quarter, we’ll donate 1% of our profits to an organization doing important work in our community, starting with Lowcountry Street Grocery’s SNAP Back campaign.

We’ve been proud to support many local and national non-profits and advocacy groups through one-time donations and special events over the past six years, but our hope is that these quarterly partnerships will further extend our impact and provide all of you with an easy way to stay engaged in creating meaningful change! Every coffee, croissant, shirt, bag, book, or candle you buy helps us fuel this effort. 

About our first 1% partner

For nearly a decade, Lowcountry Street Grocery has worked tirelessly to create a more resilient and equitable local food system, and a large part of that work has included getting healthy local food to folks who lack food access, food security, and/or transportation. Especially kids, families, and elderly neighbors who rely on SNAP. 

The SNAP BACK campaign will help cover the cost of getting fresh, healthy food into the hands of hundreds of SNAP-eligible families in the Lowcountry, now and into the (very unknown, very scary) future.  

As always, we encourage you to contribute directly if you are able (GoFundMe link in LSG’s profile), and spread the word!
