We Love Our Community – 6 Orgs You Can Support in 2026 at Buffalo Exchange
Buffalo’s commitment to sustainable fashion means giving back to the communities that support us throughout the year. We do this by swapping out single-use plastic bags at checkout for a 5 cent token that customers can donate to one of three local nonprofits benefiting animal, environmental and humanitarian causes. Since 1994, our Tokens for Bags® program has kept over 20 million plastic bags out of the environment and raised more than 1 million for thousands of local charities across the country! Check out a few of the many great organizations we’re partnering with this year.
Pursue Equity in Andersonville
Women Employed (opens in new tab) works to remove barriers to economic equity in order to create a world in which all women can achieve their aspirations. By expanding access to educational opportunities and advocating for fair and inclusive workplaces, they are improving the system for us all. They work with individuals, organizations, educators, and policymakers to ensure that all women can attain the skills they need for the jobs they want. Join in their efforts by shopping at BE Chicago-Andersonville!
Support Teens Building their Future at BE Boston
Since 2004, Artists for Humanity (opens in new tab) has been providing a safe and supportive environment for teens to explore their creativity. AFH pursues the ambitious idea that young people can provide contemporary creative services to the business community. By training and employing teens, this amazing organization offers them a key solution to economic disenfranchisement and has a resounding effect on their lives, their families and their communities. Help empower these teens by using your token at BE Boston-Somerville.
Hop Into Helping Neglected Rabbits in Brooklyn
Are you as obsessed with these cuddly cuties as we are? All About Rabbits Rescue (opens in new tab) is a non-profit based in NYC that works to place abandoned and neglected rabbits into loving forever homes! We think that rabbits deserve the same level of care and love that’s afforded to other household animals. Join us in supporting this amazing organization by shopping at BE NYC-Williamsburg.
Help Public Spaces Thrive in Seattle
The vision of Seattle Parks Foundation (opens in new tab) is one where everyone, regardless of socioeconomic factors, feels welcome in Seattle’s parks and public spaces. Driven by their belief that communities are strongest together, SPF works to resource their community with the tools needed to successfully move parks and public space projects forward. Shop at BE Seattle-Ballard to help Seattle Parks Foundation achieve their goals.
Empower Austin Through Reforestation
Started in 1988, by a group of Austinites with a vision of combating climate change and deforestation, Treefolks (opens in new tab) has grown to inspire widespread action to mitigate climate impacts. Their unique focus on community building through tree planting, tree giveaways, and education efforts has engaged thousands of volunteers to change their communities for the better. Provide a helping hand by shopping at BE Austin-SoCo!
Alleviate Hunger in Los Angeles
One meal at a time, FoodCycle (opens in new tab) is fighting food waste and making sure food gets to those who need it most. What initially started as a simple act of service quickly became something that empowers entire communities to bring about lasting change. Help FoodCycle continue to move food with care, purpose, and compassion to nourish both bodies and communities by shopping at BE Los Angeles-Sherman Oaks.
