Sweet Donation Cause Fund
Through our Sweet Cause Donation Fund, 50% of our proceeds from programming, partnerships, products, and services go directly back into our communities by providing monthly free creative-based development group workshops & need-based donations to low-income communities in the U.S. and Internationally.
Our Sweet Cause Donation Fund gives back to our communities through empowering three pathways:
Community Donation
Drop-Offs & Donation Drives
Our It Takes A Village Drop-Offs, where we drive through communities in the U.S. and donate need-based items to best support our unhoused individuals and families communities.
We also partner with organizations and receive donations. Donations typically come with letters from real people sharing love. If you have a letter you would like to write to someone needing encouragement through their hard times, please email us your letters or suggested resources, and we will include them with our donated items.
Professional & Personal Development Workshops
We provide in-person and/or virtual professional and personal development opportunities through our vision board and goal-setting workshops.
During these workshops, we use the creative arts to envision, set goals, develop tangible steps toward those goals, and explore our creativity.
Supports
Creators
Financially supports guest BIPOC Artists, Healing Practitioners, Archivists, Grant Writers, Educators, and Creators who work with us during short-term collaborations (events, workshops, school programming) that pour back into our communities.
Example: Ubuntu Project - Virtual Community Workshop participants support community artists-educators through workshop costs. A portion of our proceeds goes towards a charity cause chosen by the project cohort team.
Service
Projects
We travel and serve within the states and internationally to work with communities (individuals, gardens, farms, schools, nonprofits, galleries, residencies, and families) to co-develop with the community. We co-develop with you sustainable creative-based programs and projects that best support the community and provide solutions to ending global poverty.
In 2024, we developed a 6-month project, the Bees of the Indigo Ancestral Sanctuary & the Unity Bee Garden, where we revamped an Oaxacan home and built/landscaped their garden to hold community creative workshops and create tangible and ancestral solutions to the water drought in Oaxaca, Mexico. As of August 2024, the garden was donated to an amazing family in Oaxaca to continue sharing this work in their community and provide abundant organic food for their family.
