Outpatch was founded on the premise that community-led change is the most effective pathway to a better, more equitable, and more free world. Which is why we're getting these local changemakers the funds they need with the help of conscious consumers like you.
We are proud of our low-profit LLC (L3C) status which allows us to operate as a for-profit structure with a charitable purpose. What this means in practice is that what we sell is directly linked to our mission of increasing direct funding to local nonprofits. Businesses should better the world and that’s what we intend to use ours for.
Vision
A world where nonprofits can spend less time fundraising and more time on their mission.
Mission
Turn plastic bottles into beautiful patches that benefit nonprofits.
Ethos
Put community at the heart of everything we do. Amplify the unseen. Be good ancestors.
