WHO WE ARE
You buy. We give.
Simply put, Project 7 exists to give. We are a cause-related company that makes every day consumer goods, like bio-bottled water, gum, mints and coffee. We aren’t asking you to buy more stuff, just change the products that you already buy.
For every purchase of a Project 7 product, some good is done in seven areas of need – Feed the Hungry, Heal the Sick, Hope for Peace, House the Homeless, Quench the Thirsty, Teach them Well and Save the Earth. Non-profit organizations supporting any of these seven areas of need can submit applications to Project 7.
OUR MISSION
Project 7 was created as a way to give back, inspire others and educate people on real needs throughout the world. Our goal is to “Change the Score.”
What Does “Change the Score” mean?
Change the score. Move the needle. Make a significant, measurable difference in lives all over the world.
HOW IT STARTED
Founded in 2008, Project 7 is the brainchild of founder Tyler Merrick, a.k.a. “the social capitalist”. He wanted to turn the 7 deadly sins upside down. For example, instead of focusing on a person who is gluttonous, focus on helping the person who has nothing to eat. Project 7’s goal is to make positive change in seven areas of global need.
HOW WE DO IT?
1. FUNDING – You buy, we give. Purchase any Project 7 product and do some good in the world simply by buying something. The funds we collect from the sales of our products go to worthy non-profits that are doing good in the world. Each product supports a specific positive action. To learn what each Project 7 product does, click on each of the causes.
2. VOLUNTEERING – As a company, Project 7 volunteers and encourages our partners to volunteer every month at a non-profit that works toward positive change in one of the seven areas of need. These monthly events are called 7 Days. To learn more about 7 Days and how to become a local 7 Day chapter click here.
3. EDUCATING –
• The U.S. wastes enough food to feed the world.
• Arctic ice is rapidly disappearing, and the region may have its first completely ice-free summer by 2040 or earlier.
The best way to inspire is to educate. Project 7 believes that the more people understand the breadth and depth of the issues facing our world, the more people will be motivated to participate in positive change. On a daily basis, Project 7 utilizes social media to tell a new story and inform people of the issues. To stay in the know follow us on Twitter and check out our blog.
We can’t do it without you, our community. Together we will work to make significant positive changes in our world – for ourselves, for our neighbors, for our future.
