At Zulu & Zephyr we have been committed to supporting charitable causes, we take pride knowing our product also serves as a purpose for the greater good.
As an ongoing commitment to giving back we have strengthened our partnerships in recent years, to highlight unheard voices and promote meaningful change. 

1% FOR THE PLANET

Zulu & Zephyr has been a proud member of 1% for the Planet since 2020. We are part of a global network of more than 2000 business members, in over 60 countries, coming together to protect the future of our planet.

With a donation commitment of 1% of gross yearly sales on all mainline swimwear, apparel and denim, our pledge is to support value-aligned environmental non profits with a focus on creating the greatest impact. Since we joined the 1% for the Planet movement in 2020 we have supported Seed Indigenous Youth Climate NetworkThread Together and split our donation to the Karrkad Kanjdji Trust Women's Ranger Program, GIVIT Flood Relief, Byron Wildlife Hospital and Positive Change for Marine Life. 

ABOUT KARRKAD KANJDJI TRUST 

The Karrkad Kanjdji Trust (pronounced gar-gut gun-jee), or KKT, brings together Indigenous ranger groups, remote communities and philanthropists to address some of Australia’s most pressing social and environmental issues. They take a holistic approach to conservation, weaving together many parts to create a lasting impact across women's employment, climate change, native biodiversity, education, cultural heritage and community sustainability. 

Zulu & Zephyr is proud to be supporting the Karrkad Kanjdji Trust’s important work, with a particular focus on women’s ranger projects.

Our support of Karrkad Kanjdji Trust in February 2022 meant a financial contribution of $7500 helped to fund their women's ranger projects, helping to address Arnhem Land's most pressing environmental issues. 


ABOUT GIVIT


GIVIT's purpose is to match generosity to real need through an online platform, and change the way people give by inspiring an online network of givers. Their vision is to meet society's need in an environmentally sustainable way. 

We also support 1% for the Planet indirectly through the onboarding of new suppliers that have also pledged 1% of their sales towards environmental non-profits such as Grounded Packaging. 

By choosing to produce our recycled paper kraft mailers with Grounded Packaging who pledge 1% of their sales to Seabin Project we have removed over 210kg of plastic waste from the ocean in 2020 alone.


OUR IMPACT

Our support of Seed Indigenous Youth Climate Network in 2020 meant a financial contribution of $3200 towards funding their climate justice initiatives with a focus on strong culture and commune values.

Thread Together were able to deliver hundreds of new garments to people in need through our gift of new, unworn clothing.

By choosing to produce our recycled paper kraft mailers with Grounded Packaging who pledge 1% of their sales to Seabin Project we have removed over 210kg of plastic waste from the ocean in 2020 alone.

Our support of Karrkad Kanjdji Trust in February 2022 meant a financial contribution of $7500 helped to fund their women's ranger projects, helping to address Arnhem Land's most pressing environmental issues. 

We continue to assist the Northern Rivers community wherever and however we can through Community Service, food donations, clothing donations and raffles. 
We look forward to sharing our further impacts throughout 2022.


Since 2021, we have partnered closely with Worn For Good to promote circular fashion as a creative solution to tackling the issues of textile waste. In Australia, 6000kg of clothing is thrown out every 10 minutes, mostly ending up in landfill. What begun as a way to manage excess stock responsibly, our partnership with Worn For Good has engaged our community on social and environmental justice and the ways in which we can positively impact the world.

OUR IMPACT

"Thanks to your support, Zulu & Zephyr has helped us raise a total of  $17,609 for our charity partners. As a small start-up, your contribution has made a significant difference and we never underestimate what this can do for the charities we partner with and the programs they can continue to deliver, thanks to your generosity and involvement.   

In terms of Zulu & Zephyr's direct impact to date, if the amount raised was to be donated to one charity alone, you have single-handedly:
  • Provided a hot meal and a safe and comfortable place for a woman escaping domestic violence to stay for 35 nights
  • Provided 35 x home-delivered confidence kits to people undergoing treatment for cancer (Look Good Feel Better)
  • Provided a child with transport to school for 35 weeks in remote areas"
- Sophie Palmer, WFG FOUNDER.

Our latest donation to WFG in March 2022 went directly to the Red Cross Ukraine Crisis Appeal.
