From sustainable business models to groundbreaking social initiatives, this roundup of social good trends casts a spotlight on the most transformative and heartening trends that are driving change, empowering communities, and making the world a better place.
In light of recent news, Pure Rush Soap, the natural soap brand, has proactively supported the Writers Guild of America (WGA) writer's strike through a thoughtful digital campaign. Customers who purchase from Pure Rush Soap during this period will enjoy a generous 15% discount on their orders, helping raise awareness around the cause.
Another notable example is the joint initiative between FOLX Health and The Black Trans Advocacy Coalition (BTAC), which seeks to raise funds to support trans healthcare, particularly for those who require life-saving gender-affirming care.
