Donation Decisions

Blackmill stated in their values that they share their profits with charities they believe in.

In FY18, they contributed 1% of their profits to Kids Under Cover. In FY19, they contributed 5% of their profits to the White Ribbon Campaign. In FY20, they distributed 1% of their revenue amongst several organisations. This financial year they are committing 1% of last year's revenue to be distributed on a quarterly basis.

Alex Hillman (who's book I featured last week) announced yesterday that this year he and his business partner, Amy Hoy, set aside 5% of their gross revenue from their popular business course (I was one of their students a few years a go). They are donating to programs and resources who support or empower the people most impacted by structural and institutional racism. This included $3,200 to each of The Human Utility, The Philadelphia Bail Fund, Coded By Kids and Navajo & Hopi Families COVID-19 Relief Fund.

Do you know any businesses that donate between 1% of profits and 5% of gross revenue to support the wider community?
