10 Brands That Donate to Animal Rescues

The husband-and-wife team of artfully-designed home goods are also the parents of two adopted dogs, and they have continually given back to animal rescues throughout their entrepreneurship. While their proceeds have been distributed amongst many activist nonprofits they believe in, some of their favorite animal-related orgs include Zoos Victoria, WIRES, and Ocean Conservancy.

Pura Vida, makers of stackable, DIY-style friendship bracelets, donate sales from their charity collections to the causes they care about. It means that every time you purchase a charming piece from their Animal Causes page, five percent of the proceeds are donated to organizations that work toward protecting vulnerable wildlife, such as Rainforest Trust, Sea Turtle Conservancy, and The Elephant Sanctuary. 

This bath and beauty company is an OG when it comes to their cruelty-free, handmade products. Buy anything from their Charity Pot collection, and they’ll donate a full 100 percent of proceeds to an org that is “upholding human rights, environmental justice and the protection of animals,” including Beagle Freedom Projec t, which rescues Beagles from inhumane lab testing and research.

If you’re a fan of vodka and pups, grab Tito’s the next time you stock the bar. The distiller’s ongoing Vodka for Dog People program donates to nonprofits supporting pets in threatening situations. Over the past year, Tito’s contributed $43K to GreaterGood.org, which provides vet care relief for financially burdened pet owners who are affected by the pandemic. 

This cruelty-free beauty brand — which infuses rich argan oil into their luxury, cult-fave hair and body products — is committed to various social causes, including the animal welfare efforts of The Sato Project, which rescues and rehomes abandoned dogs in Puerto Rico. Moroccanoil has also supported The Humane Society of United States since 2011 and received the Corporate Consciousness Award from the HSUS in 2017.

Canadian skincare company Grounded Sage is so committed to animal rescues that they have a too-many-to-count list of orgs they have donated to or continue to donate to. The list includes Bullies In Need, which works to rescue Pit Bulls, and Animal Rescue Foundation of Ontario, which works with the First Nations people to find homes for stray dogs in the area. 

The Virginia-based Sydney Hale Company is an independent home goods brand that produces its own line of candles, hand soaps, room fragrances, and dog accessories entirely by hand. Not only do they donate 10 percent of their profits to animal rescue orgs, Sydney Hale Co. curates the adorable Insta account @faces_of_rescue, which joyously shouts out “rescued dogs and their people.”

Los Angeles-based fashion stylist Nola Singer used her experience in the animal rescue world to develop a delicious California rosé wine that can be enjoyed by pet parents and non-pet parents alike.
