There are quite a few for-profit, cause-based businesses. This means that they're businesses that support another charity or non-profit organization. From saving the elephants to helping people in need, each one of these businesses have their own charities or non-profits that they support, all while selling cute clothes or accessories to people who are willing to give.
A lot of these businesses are popular but not many people know exactly what they are supporting when buying from them, or some people may not know that they could help different causes by buying from these stores.
