There have been a lot of exciting changes around here lately.  After working with B1G1 for a number of our past causes, we at Roozt have partnered with Buy One Give One (B1G1) to be its exclusive cause giving platform in the United States! B1G1 is a social enterprise that ‘gives businesses the power to change lives’ through connecting them with high impact and worthy causes around the globe.

B1G1 links businesses to over 600 humanitarian projects worldwide so that businesses can give back in definable, high-impact ways by just focusing on their core business model.

Through  B1G1 and Roozt partnerships in the past three months, Roozt and all our our socially saavy shoppers have already:

•     given 516 children access to clean water,
•    provided school supplies to 400 children,
•    distributed life-saving medication to 314 children in Kenya and,
•    adopted 379 plots of endangered rainforest land!

B1G1 Chairman, Paul Dunn, said that the Roozt partnership represented the company’s first major link in the US.  Roozt will be B1G1’s exclusive partner in the US, helping Roozt to promote social entrepreneurship and the integration of social responsibility into emerging businesses.

Roozt founder, Brent Freeman, believes that the power of B1G1 is in embedding the giving into the platform. “Because B1G1 has done such great work in finding great projects, our partnership allows us to focus on what we’re both good at while achieving the highest impact possible in our giving.” he said. “It’s not something that’s tacked on — giving is part of who we are, our customer purchases, and the entire Roozt shopping experience.”

“B1G1 has already impacted 1.6 million lives through over 4 million giving transactions, and that’s before our US presence” Mr. Dunn said. “We’re thrilled to be playing a part with Roozt to harness the power of eCommerce to create a positive impact in the world. Roozt’s focus on providing a central online destination for socially conscious companies to sell to is just the perfect place for us to be.”

Thank you to all our deal subscribers and shoppers for making this possible. We’re thrilled to be partnering with B1G1 and look forward to creating a tangible impact on the world of social entrepreneurship!
