Back Text:
"In recognizing the humanity of our fellow beings, we pay ourselves the highest tribute." - Thurgood Marshall
"My humanity is bound up in yours, for we can only be human together." - Desmond Tutu
All too often, when we see injustices, both great and small, we think, That's terrible, but we do nothing. We say nothing. We let other people fight their own battles. We remain silent because silence is easier... When we say nothing, when we do nothing, we are consenting to these trespasses against us." - Roxane Gay
“Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.” - Harriet Tubman
“I am America. I am the part you won’t recognize. But get used to me. Black, confident, cocky; my name, not yours; my religion, not yours; my goals, my own; get used to me.” - Muhammad Ali
Darkness can not drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.” - Martin Luther King Jr.
“I had no idea that history was being made. I was just tired of giving up.” - Rosa Parks
“Won’t it be wonderful when black history and Native American history and Jewish history and all of U.S. history is taught from one book. Just U.S. history.” - Maya Angelou
“Diversity is not about how we differ. Diversity is about embracing one another’s uniqueness.” - Ola Joseph
My parents gave me the pep talk when I started school, the same speech all black parents give their kids: You're gonna have to be bigger, badder, better, just to be considered equal. You're gonna have to do twice as much work and you're not going to get any credit for your accomplishments or for overcoming adversity. Most black people grow accustomed to the fact that we have to excel just to be seen as existing, and this is a lesson passed down from generation to generation." - Gabrielle Union
“A democracy cannot thrive where power remains unchecked and justice is reserved for a select few. Ignoring these cries and failing to respond to this movement is simply not an option – for peace cannot exist where justice is not served.” - John Lewis
“One of the lessons that I grew up with was to always stay true to yourself and never let what somebody else says distract you from your goals. And so when I hear about negative and false attacks, I really don’t invest any energy in them, because I know who I am.” - Michelle Obama

Our Impact
MAKE A WISH - $1,000,000 RAISED
Since 2016, we have worked with Mountain Vista High School on their wish-week project. This is the part of our brand that fuels our passion battery and jump starts every year for us with a unique and beautiful energy.
Through the past 6 years, we are also proud to say that we have helped raise over $1,000,000 for @wishcolorado... but what does this mean?
It costs roughly $7500 to grant each wish and divided into what we’ve raised, we’ve been able to be a part of approximately 133 wishes granted. That’s 133 beautiful lives & families forever touched with more to come.
250,000 MEALS DONATED
We have partnered with Snooze, An AM Eatery, to create a collaborative t-shirt that will benefit No Kid Hungry. With every shirt purchased, we'll donate $10, which can provide up to 100 meals to children in need*.
OUR GOAL: UP TO 250,000 MEALS
*$1 can provide up to 10 meals. Meal equivalency varies during COVID-19 relief. Learn more at NoKidHungry.org/OneDollar
All sales for this collaborative item are final.
BAGP Water Project
Over the summer of 2019, we collaborated with @adamspolishes to raise funds to aid the clean water crisis that is still ongoing in Flint, Michigan.
This past weekend, we flew from Colorado to Flint to deliver water bottles, water filtration systems, food, books, and art supplies for the community in need. Although the overall problem in Flint is bigger than the water crisis, not being able to drink, clean, cook, or shower is an issue most of us have or may never face. We understand water bottles are only a temporary solution, so the majority of our benefit included water filtration systems such as faucet filters, replacement cartridges, and gallon purifiers.
