Giving Back

Giving Back with Purpose

At Esottera, giving back isn’t a marketing gesture - it’s a practice of stewardship and care. Everything we create is intended to serve not only you but also the Earth and the communities around us.

That’s why 10% of every purchase supports organizations protecting people, animals, and ecosystems worldwide.


When you wear Esottera, you’re not just choosing thoughtful fashion - you’re contributing to the restoration and care of the world we’ve been entrusted with.

Why Our Hoodies (and Everything We Make) Matter

Hoodies have long symbolized comfort, belonging, and personal expression. For us, they also represent community: a movement of people choosing to create beauty with purpose.

When you wear an Esottera hoodie, tee, tote, or hat, you join a collective effort to bring care and intention back into commerce - one small act of generosity at a time.

Environmental Initiatives

We believe that healing and caring for creation begins with honoring its natural cycles.


Through our partnerships, we support projects that:

  • Conserve natural resources

  • Protect wildlife and habitats

  • Promote sustainable and circular practices

Community Initiatives

Sustainability is also about caring for people and communities.
That’s why part of your purchase supports programs that:

  • Empower youth and women

  • Support education and leadership development

  • Provide care and opportunity for those in need

Transparency in Action

We believe trust is essential - so we share where every contribution goes.
Updates on nonprofits and projects are published regularly. (At least twice a year for now, until our business grows) on our website and social channels.

Every contribution you make is part of something tangible, meaningful, and lasting.

The Organizations We Support

We’re honored to give back to initiatives that reflect our mission of caring for creation and communities:

  • Big Green - teaching communities to grow their own food and live sustainably.

  • National Hispanic Institute - empowering young Latino leaders through education and engagement.

  • International Union for Conservation of Nature(IUCN)  - protecting biodiversity and advancing sustainable development.

  • Safe Harbor - providing shelter and support to those experiencing homelessness.

  • The Bee Conservancy - safeguarding pollinators through habitat creation and education.

  • Women's Empowerment Coalition - supporting female coffee farmers with tools for business and independence.

  • Reef Life Foundation - rebuilding ocean ecosystems.
    (As of August 2025, our community donations have funded the creation of six new ocean habitats 🪸 - thank you, Earthsent family!)

  • *NOTE: Some of our designs go toward specific nonprofits I.E: Our Ocean related designs - 10% goes toward ocean restoring nonprofits, Our Hispanic Heritage related designs  - 10% goes toward National Hispanic Institute. Our Bee design hoodie - 10% goes toward the Bee Conservancy. As our small business grows, we have every intention of increasing our donation percentage and hosting fundraisers and events that support the listed nonprofits as well as others. Together we can make positive ripples of change one hoodie... one tote...or our SOUL Sustainability Model course session at a time:)
