Mission
It’s alchemy - turning your treasure into contribution.
Designed Giving is a conduit for hard assets converting art, fashion, home décor and more, into funding for a wide variety of nonprofit organizations.
As a 501(c)3 we aim to build a highly-curated, ‘go-to’ retail brick + mortar and e-commerce entity that connects nonprofits, donors, and cause shoppers.
Donor directed proceeds are earned via diversified impact shopping opportunities.
