Giving Back

As part of our mission to give back to the urban community, its people, causes and concerns, effective 5/20/2016, Robben & Gorée will make a donation of at least $2.00 to one of our select charities for each t-shirt purchased and 10% of net profits on all other products.  You will be given the opportunity to select a charity at checkout.  Charitable giving is part of the DNA of our company.  Robben & Gorée was conceived in large part as a response to the needs of and the desire to serve our local urban, women and minority communities.

Our clients and supporters are presented with the option of choosing from a list of charities during the purchase process.  The charity that you select will receive our donation.  We will disperse accumulated donations at least quarterly beginning the end of the second quarter of 2016.
