We want to dampen the dumpster fire

Since we’re NOT part of the 1% billionaires who moor their super yachts next to large piles of gold, we’re forced to make a living in the modern hellscape known as late-stage capitalism, just like you. Thanks for playing in the system with us!

Because of this weird Squid Game-like money circus, we’ve decided to donate a portion of our profits every year to a charitable cause close to our cold, black hearts. It makes us want to spend less time crying in the shower, and more time making fun, pretty stuff for other people who like to laugh too.

It's early days yet on our journey to dampen the dumpster fire, but our plan is to donate a part of our profits to the Canadian Cancer Society. A bunch of people we know and love dearly were unfairly gifted with this shit-fuck disease, so we’d like to contribute to the research projects they fund and support services they provide to people affected by cancer.

Check back in 2025 when we plan to publish our first ‘We Didn't Just Watch the World Burn’ report outlining what we’ve managed. Is that many months away? Yes. But we’re just getting started so give us a minute. We’ll report back as soon as we can.

Our 2024 plan

Here’s what we plan to include in We Didn’t Just Watch the World Burn: 2025 Report.

Donate to Charity

Once we wrap sales for 2024, we’ll tally up our pennies and donate a portion of our profits to Canadian Cancer Society. Because cancer can bugger off. Final total TBC!

The Canadian Cancer Society funds high performance cancer research that improves cancer outcomes, advocates for health-protecting policies, and provides trusted information, resources, and support for those affected by cancer, their families, and caregivers.

Establish a Baseline for Operations Improvement

Shipping emissions, packaging improvements, reductions and recyclables, anything ops related – we’re going to measure, track, and assess ways we can make improvements.

Responsible Sourcing

Responsible sourcing is necessary part of the gemstone jewellery we make. We’re actively researching and educating ourselves on ways we can improve.

We hope make progress on our blockchain based traceability research project and will report back.
