Shop to Support on #GivingTuesday
Did you know that every time you shop with MATE, you’re not only doing better for your body and the planet, you’re also supporting a nonprofit? Whenever you make a purchase with us, 1% is donated to a nonprofit of your choice through our partnership with Beam Impact.
This year, we’re excited to make an even bigger impact for GivingTuesday! On November 30, 2021, we’re increasing donations to 5% of order totals. This way, you can feel extra good about shopping at a Climate Neutral Certified brand like MATE and donating money to a cause you believe in.
You can track our year-round donation progress here.
What is GivingTuesday?
Every year, on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving, people around the world make a united effort to show and promote generosity. GivingTuesday was created in 2012 at the 92nd Street Y in New York City and has evolved into a nonprofit organization with a mission to build a world where generosity is part of everyday life.

There are four different nonprofits you can shop to support on GivingTuesday. 5% of your purchase will go toward funding a specific goal (at no additional cost to you!):
