FOUR COMPANIES THAT SUPPORT DISABILITY JUSTICE
ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED ON LEVEL21
Prejudice and stereotypes toward individuals with disabilities are still very prevalent in our society. Educating ourselves about disability is essential when it comes to acceptance. Educating our youth & the general public about disability creates conversation around disability, smashes stigmas, and starts movements. Read on to discover four fantastic companies that give back to disability awareness.
Teak & Twine is a woman-led company that curates artisan goods from around the country. Their mission is simple: they want to make gifting as easy as a couple of clicks on your beloved Amazon Prime while making it as personal as if you'd spent hours creating a gift just perfect for loved ones. They pride themselves on finding excellent packaging, the best products, the most delicious chocolate, and the best way to combine bubble wrap and packing tape.
A portion of their proceeds goes to America's Vet Dogs, an organization that trains service dogs for veterans with disabilities.
LSTN was founded with a singular purpose: to change lives through the power of music. Proceeds from all LSTN products go towards giving hearing aids to people in need worldwide through our charity partner, Starkey Hearing Foundation. LSTN has helped more than 30,000 people worldwide, and that number is growing every day. Some of our past missions include Peru, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Uganda, China, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, The United States & Kenya. (LSTN)
