Profits from Good Green Hat go toward educating kids about the rainforest and conservation through the Earth’s Birthday Project.

Buying a Good Green hat means you’re empowering student conservationists to help protect critically endangered South American rainforests.
By helping to protect the rainforests from activities like mining and timber harvesting, you also help prevent the release of millions of tons of carbon pollution. Every cent from the sale of each Good Green Hat goes toward a sustainable planet, through either recycling, education or fair wages. Plus, each hat is sewn in the US by women receiving fair wages and education for a better life through the Southwest Creations Collaborative.
