It’s the indie movement. The DIY kind of mentality. It’s the decision to choose artisan over mass-produced and big box. In today’s world, we are presented with numerous options in our purchasing decisions. Some are convenient and some may take a bit more effort to find, but have a greater impact locally and are more sustainable. That is where IndieDoGood.com is positioning itself.

• What if there was a website where you could find products built by innovators and makers?
• What if that same website offered to donate 5% of your purchase to a charity of your choice?

IndieDoGood.com is a home where entrepreneurs can begin their story and the purchases made give back to local communities and contribute to a better world.

There are numerous maker stories featured that highlight the innovative and independent spirit, including

Hammer Head—the world’s only protective swim cap.  

Fair Anita—rooted in fair trade practices and “empowers women around the world to creative and beautiful jewelry, accessories and clothing.”

Shore Boards—custom wood paddle boards, wakesurf boards, and longboards built locally in Minnesota (the land of 10,000 lakes)

IndieDoGood.com—founded by Ron and Susan Otten who transitioned out of their successful corporate careers to become “makers” themselves—has built a community that focuses on supporting entrepreneurs and gives back to charity and local communities with every purchase.

How can you be a part of it?

• All purchases made from the site include a Do Good, a 5% donation to your favorite charity selected from a partner list provided.
