BangsShoes is a company that aims to demonstrate a new model of corporate
philanthropy that sparks a new socially responsible edge for the
future of retail. The Bangs method is to integrate fundraising for
non-profit organizations into a for-profit business model.
The
Bangs mission is to “Stand on issues to help others stand on their
own”. Every aspect of Bangs, from the name (Bang-zhu in Mandarin
means “to help”), to the revenue model, to even the design of the
shoes emanates this mentality.
Hannah
Davis, Founder and President of Bangs Shoes says: "We are in an
era where combining philanthropy and business is not only accepted,
but demanded by a socially conscious generation of consumers. I
believe, along with many others today, that individuals are capable
of affecting widespread positive change. With Bangs, wherever you
stand you stand on issues. The Bangs mission is to raise awareness
and funding for some of our world's most complex issues."
They
have partnered with non-profit organizations that focus on
self-reliability and empowerment through the empowerment of local
communities. Each of the partners works to provide people with the
tools they need to develop themselves, fueling long term positive
change, turning away from handout methodology.
Each
pair of Bangs has an icon stitched on the outside heel to help remind
you which cause and nonprofit your Bangs support. 20% of net profits
made from each pair of Bangs are invested in its nonprofit partner.
