What an incredible evening at the?Labor 411?Blue Tie Gala! Congratulations to the honorees, Garment Worker Center and Los Angeles County Firefighters Local 1014. Our CEO, Daniel Cardozo, who also serves as co-chair of the LABOR 411 FOUNDATION, had the opportunity to highlight the Foundation’s impactful work, particularly with the Alliance for Responsible Apparel Manufacturing and Purchasing (ARAMP) As a founding member and funder of ARAMP,?Labor 411?is driving positive change in ethical manufacturing, and we’re proud to be a part of it. #Labor411?#bluetiegala?#ethicalmanufacturing

?? What does it mean to make ethical choices in a consumer-driven world—especially on our campuses? The Ignatian Solidarity Network is leading the way in helping Catholic colleges and universities (as well as high schools, parishes, and other ministries) live out their values through ethical purchasing practices via the Catholic Ethical Purchasing Alliance. From worker rights to environmental sustainability, CEPA is providing a platform to ensure that institutional decisions align with Catholic Social Teaching and the dignity of every person in the supply chain. ?? Shoutout to the #Catholic colleges, universities, high schools, etc. stepping up to ask hard questions: Who makes our goods? Under what conditions? How is the Earth impacted by their creation? And how can we act justly as institutions of faith and learning? ??

And, to great funders like the Labor 411 Foundation! #CatholicSocialTeaching #EthicalPurchasing #JesuitEducated #HigherEd #IgnatianSolidarity #FaithInAction #Sustainability #WorkersRights #CatholicHigherEd University of Dayton, Villanova University, John Carroll University, Xavier University, Saint Louis University, Cardinal Gibbons High School, Loyola University Maryland, Fordham University

Ethix is honored to be featured in America Media's recent article about how colleges, high schools, and universities are consciously shifting toward more ethical sources for their branded merchandise. We’re proud to lead the charge alongside the Ignatian Solidarity Network, the Catholic Ethical Purchasing Alliance, and hyperlocal ethical apparel manufacturers like TS Designs. As Ethix Ethical Purchasing Program Coordinator, Alayna Milby, puts it: “There is a need for this, for a shift in the promotional products [and apparel industries] for high schools, colleges and universities. The fact that we’ve been able to [pull] revenue away from those harmful industry suppliers really speaks to the fact that folks will spend more money and will do the extra work to find the products.” Many thanks to all the colleges (and high schools!) prioritizing ethically sourced products for your bookstores!

Ethix Marketing Director, Lindsey Cole, recently joined the Advertising Specialty Institute #PromoForThePlanet board. We are excited to work with other industry leaders to advance sustainability efforts in our industry, alongside promoting workers' rights, as we believe that true sustainability must consider the well-being of both the planet and the people who make it all possible.

A shout out to the folks at Climate Town and their latest video that dropped yesterday debunking the crazy / false statements in the the series Landman. What I like about them, they do their homework and share their sources. These are the same folks that did the video last year about the broken “merch” world of printed tees. Also a shout out to Rustek Collective for onboarding your great plastic free ball caps to join our TS Designs tees at Climate Town and Daniel Cardozo from Ethix Merch for brining us all together.
