In April, I pledged to donate 10% of my take-home blog income to a sustainable non-profit or mutual aid fund (on top of my personal giving). Since a lot of my content is about sustainability, it’s only right to give back to those finding solutions on-the-ground, or who are directly impacted by these issues.
I made $16,651 from my blog in 2021. After expenses and taxes, I’ll take home around $11,000. 10% of that is $1,100, though I’ll up it to $1,200 to make sure I’m not short.
I decided to give this money to The Garment Worker Center's Emergency Relief Fund. The money will go to garment workers in LA who have been making masks and protective gear, all while facing unclean conditions, high rates of infection, and subminimum wages. Since the industry often operates “off the books,” many workers also aren’t eligible for paid sick leave and unemployment benefits.
If you’re looking to give this season, I’d recommend the Garment Worker Center and this particular fund. The GWC was actually a major sponsor of the recently-passed Garment Worker Protection Act in CA, which holds brands accountable for paying workers at least the minimum wage (brands were previously getting away with an average of $5/hour).
➡️ If you’re also curious about my blogging income, stats, and reflections, I recently published an income report + year in review for transparency. Link to this post and the GWC fund below! Thank you all for being here and making this donation possible 💛
