DG + GLAM4GOOD'S COVID-19 CRITICAL AID FUND

With the announcement of the global pandemic in March, Dos Gardenias we they had to figure out a way to help. We decided to team up once again with founder Mary Alice Stephenson of GLAM4GOOD to support their COVID-19 CRITICAL AID FUND. 25% of proceeds from your online purchase go directly to this initiative, helping to secure and facilitate direct delivery of PPE, personal care essentials, new clothing, and learning tools to healthcare workers on the frontlines, families in need and underserved youth. Since the end of March, we've already donated thousands of dollars to this initiative. You may learn more about GLAM4GOOD's efforts here. When you shop Dos Gardenias, you #Shop4Good. We thank you for your support.

EARTH DAY NETWORK

In alignment with their longstanding commitment to the environment, Dos Gardenias has become an official partner with Earth Day Network. Dos Gardenias hosted a nationwide beach clean up in conjunction with EDN in April 2019. We garnered over 200 volunteers along the east and west coasts, including 75 at our HQ at Surfrider Beach in Malibu, CA.

Dos Gardenias was also honored to attend the Earth Day Network Climate Leadership Gala at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, DC in May 2019 to present the Women and Green Economy award to Ashley Bell. The Gala brought together over 300 leaders of industry, government and the NGO community to celebrate achievements and lead the path to a post-carbon future.

As the fashion industry is the third leader of carbon emissions in the world, we have made it our mission to create global awareness for sustainable fashion, including a fully sustainable 2020 collection.

WAVES 4 WATER

Dos Gardenias acts above and below sea level using their platform to support events, movements and charities such as Waves 4 Water and GLAM4GOOD. In December of 2016, Dos Gardenias donated 30K and raised an additional 80K for The Haiti Hurricane Matthew Relief Initiative on behalf of the clean water charity, Waves For Water, through their charity benefit, hosted by Joy Bryant and Sal Masekela, at Soho House’s Little Beach House in Malibu, California.

MATCHES FASHION & WAVES 4 WATER

With the launch of our Shop For A Cause initiative, Dos Gardenias teamed up with Matches Fashion and Waves 4 Water, a non-profit whose mission is to provide clean water to remote, destitute, and devastated communities around the globe. For every Dos Gardenias swimsuit purchased through Matches Fashion, we donated a water filter to Waves For Water. One filter can provide 100 people with clean water for up to 5 years. Dos Gardenias donated 140 water filters, effectively affording 14,000 people with clean drinking water.

Given the recent natural disasters and geopolitical climate, Dorothy and Brighdie want their customers to know they are supporting philanthropic efforts in a way that makes our world and our water better.

GLAM4GOOD

GLAM4GOOD founder, Mary Alice Stephenson, who uses style as a tool for self- esteem and empowerment, partnered with Dos Gardenias as the official swimwear brand for the charity in 2017. Together GLAM4GOOD and Dos Gardenias blazed a path of initiatives, helping women in need realize their self-worth.
