About the Makers
This gift box supports three Peace by Piece International partners:
Ocean Bottle is a social impact company with a mission to stop plastic pollution at its source. Their commitment to plastic collection is not a gimmick; it’s the essence of their business and why they are our only partner for cold and hot bottles. Each Ocean Bottle your company purchases funds the collection of 25 lb of ocean-bound plastic, equivalent to the weight of 1,000 single-use plastic bottles. Since OB’s inception in 2018, the collection of over 11,966,598 kg of Ocean-Bound Plastic has been funded.
Thistle & Bee is a Memphis-based nonprofit social enterprise dedicated to empowering women survivors of sex trafficking, prostitution, and addiction. Through a comprehensive two-year residential program, participants receive safe housing, trauma-informed care, and personalized services—including medical, dental, and therapeutic support—to facilitate healing and recovery. The organization offers up to 18 months of employment within its social enterprise, where women gain job experience and valuable skills by producing handcrafted, honey-based products such as granola, body care items, and candles, with proceeds reinvested into programs that support the women’s journey toward independence.
1951 Coffee Company is a nonprofit specialty coffee organization that empowers refugees, asylees, and Special Immigrant Visa holders through barista training and employment.
