Shop The Cause Mall: The Meaningful Marketplace
Updated: Feb 26, 2022
It's November 1st, marking the first day of which The Cause Mall is open to shop! We are excited to welcome you to our website and encourage you to support the sellers who have joined us in time for our launch. Interested in joining us as a seller? See if you qualify, here.
About Us
The Cause Mall is a meaningful marketplace where you can purchase with a purpose. We make it easy for customers (buyers) to shop for everyday lifestyle products and services based on causes they would like to support. Brands are selected to join and sell their art, products, and market their services based on meeting one of our three cause criteria: brand identity and values (BIPOC-owned, LGBTQ+, mompreneurs, women-, disabled- veteran-owned, etc.); product make and source (handmade, vegan, cruelty-free, locally sourced, recycled, etc.); and charitable contributions. While allowing consumers to be selective—not just by the products they buy, but through the sources they chose, and channeled by a cause, our company has a meaningful impact and spreads equity across communities.
Shopping our Marketplace
The American shopping culture is shifting from economizers to multidimensional decision-making where consumers consider sellers’ values, societal impact, and how a purchase resonates with their identity. Our marketplace encourages shoppers to make purchase decisions beyond traditional considerations of price, quality, and convenience; we want to influence your shopping experience by placing a high emphasis on values such as authenticity, sustainability, and how your spent dollars later impact society.
By shopping our meaningful marketplace, we deliver on our mission of bringing equity, economic empowerment, and transparency to the shopping experience. Each storefront consists of information about both the seller and their brand, allowing you to be educated on who you're supporting when you make a purchase.
Joining as a Seller
Our marketplace also meets the needs of traditionally marginalized business owners and entrepreneurs by bringing them together in one central marketplace to raise their brand visibility and impact, while providing them with resources and community necessary to sustain and scale their brands. Sellers can join The Cause Club which is a supportive community to network, engage in forums for standard business advice, and share achievements and promotions.
We envision that a high-level of collaboration of both talent and wisdom on The Cause Club will lead to storefronts on our marketplace outgrowing the term “small” and instead being identified as successful businesses well supported by the public. The Cause Club members have access to trainings and information in the following areas and more:
Mentorship
Financial Literacy
Business Optimization
Marketing & Promotions
Grants
Pop-up & Events
