For National Human Trafficking Awareness Day, we're sharing 5 simple actions you can take RIGHT NOW, from wherever you're sitting, that will make a BIG IMPACT in preventing human trafficking and supporting survivors.
This January, for National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month, we want to share the realities of trafficking and how you can fight trafficking in your day-to-day life. Join us this month for our new series, Myth Busting Monday: The Truth about Trafficking.
Our 2022 end of year social impact report is here! Thank you for your support throughout this year & for helping us transform communities by giving women their Dignity back 💚
Our virgin coconut oil is “RAW” - never cooked or processed. This means it retains every bit of healthy goodness with a superior taste. You get the most pure and delicious virgin coconut oil a jar can hold.
Did you know refined coconut oil is made from coconuts that are moldy and filled with bugs?! This is coconut meat (aka “Copra”) used for Refined Coconut Oil.
Most coconut companies contract only with big plantations in order to reduce costs. This leaves owners of small farms at the mercy of middlemen who consolidate these smaller harvests while taking a large cut for themselves.
Maybe you noticed that someone wrote on the top of your jar. A name. In permanent ink. Right there on the lid of your coconut oil. What's up with that?
This year, your purchase of coconut oil or lip balm sent a kid to school, fed a family, provided clean water, and most importantly, transformed a community with dignity.
Modern-day slavery is a 43 billion dollar industry and growing, with millions of women and children being treated like property. One-third of the world lives on less than $2/day, driving them to despair, desperation and hopelessness. The heavy weight of these chains of poverty and slavery are too much to bear.
The hard to reach places. The places with high unemployment and disease rates. The logistically messy places. The places most businesses won't go. The places where education is substandard.
Large-scale businesses have taken their toll on the environment - clearing forests, depleting precious natural resources, clogging up the air and in the end, polluting our water and soil and producing more waste than our landfills can handle.
At Dignity, we value the earth and believe it’s our responsibility to be
her care takers. We are using a sustainable resource (coconuts!) and
organic farming methods to restore people and the Planet! Read on to learn
how Dignity is implementing positive change.
Every time we make a purchase, we are sending a message and making a
choice. Even the simplest purchase is a vote. What you, the consumer,
purchase drives companies to produce more. You vote with your dollars for
what you want to see on the shelf. You have power!
The term "organic" gets tossed around quite a bit*. Perhaps you try to buy
USDA Organic because you know it will be healthier and free of pesticides.
Most likely you trust the USDA Organic symbol on your products. That's
GREAT! But what does Organic mean for Dignity Coconut Oil? It means a lot
to us.
