Your Support Matters!
Share
I knew from the beginning that I didn't want to just make money from this. The plan is to donate at least 10% of profits each month to non-profit organizations that support people who are being targeted by the Trump administration. This includes NGO's that help with immigration legal services, LGBTQ+ and transgender people, food and water for children, etc.
At the end of each month, starting at the end of August 2025, I will donate to one or more of these non-profits and post proof of it just below here. I encourage you to find similar organizations and make donations as well!
August 2025 Donations
Will post donations in the first week of September!
I want to address the specific wording I used earlier: "at least 10% of profits." Since these products are all made through a Print on Demand service, I don't touch any part of the manufacturing or shipping process. (I create the designs that go on them and manage this website and all the businessy stuff.) That means each product has a set cost to produce and shipping cost that I don't control.
All I can control is the "Profit", which I am able to set for each product. They are generally set around 50% which means if the cost to make it is $10, I add $5 for profit and you pay $15 + shipping. This $5, plus any amount "tipped" at checkout, is what I make and where the 10% profit that I'll donate to charity comes from. Even though I don't do any handling of the actual products, there are expenses to running all this that I still need to pay for before I pay myself as well.
I'm going to make money from this, yes. I have a family, student loans, ridiculous medical debt and ongoing medical expenses, and all that. Without giving too much personal information away, we're at a very expensive part of our children's lives and simply can't afford to give them much. While I do work full time, we are paycheck-to-paycheck, so I'm this will help us be able to pay down some of those debts and give our own kids more.
So yes, your support matters! It matters a lot to me and my family as we try and get back on top of our finances. At the same time though, I'm very worried about the direction this asshole president and his regime are taking us, and I HAVE to do something to help out as well.
