Giving Back
A portion of our profits goes to support an organization called Lotus Outreach.
Lotus Outreach empowers students and families living in poverty around the world, in regions across India and Cambodia, and through partnerships in Vietnam, Brazil, Guatemala, and the USA. Since 1993, LO has focused on the empowerment of women and girls. Sustained giving is dedicated to a Scholarship Fund that beneficiaries can rely on year after year, ensuring access to education, clean water, counseling, and health and nutritional support into the future.
Education & Training + Care = Empowerment
Education and Training
Girls’ education is a transformative force. Educated women experience wide-ranging benefits, including: healthier children, less risk of experiencing domestic violence, marry younger, have fewer children, higher incomes, respect in making household decisions, and better healthcare for their families. All these advantages combined can help lift households, communities, and nations out of poverty.
Creating Gender Equality
Where there is poverty, there are opportunities for exploitation. Women and girls are much more vulnerable than men and boys in low income countries where gender discrimination impacts all levels of social, economic and political life. We recognize gender discrimination and work toward gender equality in the communities we are active.
Care and Protection
LO care initiatives address gaps in the provision of basic needs in places where the conditions for exploitation are devastating. They work together with LO education and training projects to cultivate empowerment and protection for those who need it most. Providing care and protection nourishes wellbeing among beneficiaries and supports educational and learning outcomes.
Anti-trafficking, Health and Water Services
Lotus Outreach anti-trafficking, health and water service programs are are directly serving 17,000 women and children in 2019. LO are proud to support the conditions for our beneficiaries to thrive.
1,000 Coffee aims to subscribe 1,000 community members from around the globe to give up coffee monthly. From there, who knows what we can achieve together for at-risk girls and communities on this planet? At LO, we believe in the power of collective action and generosity. Coffee drinkers and networks everywhere are invited to join us to celebrate the power of collective generosity for girls’ empowerment.
