Make a Difference Through Conscious Shopping

“Even a small act of kindness can make a big difference in someone’s world”
The School of Life

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, many are feeling either hopeless or powerless in this unprecedented crisis.

COVID-19 has brought devastating consequences to people, businesses, and community organizations across the globe, forcing many into survival mode. Individually, there is little we can do, but by supporting one another as a community willing to put the society’s interest ahead of our own and take action, we can not only collectively tackle the pandemic, but also overcome it, coming out stronger.

Simple Switch, an e-commerce mission-driven business with the mission of making an impact with every dollar you spend, serves as a great starting point.

Simple Switch’s customers, through their purchase, empower Simple Switch’s partners to tackle social, humanitarian, and environmental challenges harming the world – such as childhood mortality, human trafficking, reducing waste and pollution, and empowering women around the world, all while getting supplies they need to self-quarantine or stay-at-home.
