Welcome to DoneGood! DoneGood is the shopping site Forbes called, "The Amazon for Social Good."

We're here to help you use your purchasing power to:

-Avoid shopping with companies you don't believe in—like corporations that support Trump! -And instead, support the things you do believe in by shopping with businesses that pay good wages, invest in communities, and combat climate change.

To start, it's important to know companies to avoid; where your purchase will be inadvertently supporting causes you don't believe in. And that's why we've compiled the list of companies below who are supporting Trump's campaign or have other financial ties to Trump.

You can send a powerful message by joining in the movement to boycott Trump and the companies working to keep him in power.

Resources to support your boycott


A great tool to make boycotting Trump easy--the DoneGood browser plug in will notify you if you visit a website that supports Trump and makes it easy to send that company a message that they need to cut it out to earn back your dollars.

Easily get the free DoneGood browser plugin, available in the Google Chrome store, and not only will we notify you about companies that support Trump, but it also shows you recommendations for ethical and sustainable companies that have the kinds of products you're looking for when you shop on Amazon, Google, or other big-name retailer sites.

Can I really make an impact?


Yes! The dollars we all spend are the world's most powerful force for change.

Each day—each day!—American consumers spend more than $350 billion on goods and services. This is almost the same amount as the total donated to all U.S. charities in an entire year. If even a fraction of the dollars we spend also reduce poverty, protect the environment, and create a better world, the impact is enormous.

Plus, doesn't it just feel better to know that your money is supporting the things you believe in?

So where should you shop? Where can you buy products and feel confident that your dollars are doing good for people and the planet? First off, you can sign up for email from DoneGood where we help answer questions like this and make ethical shopping easy!

DoneGood scours the earth to find brands that believe in equality, human rights, fair wages, and worker empowerment. We seek out businesses that believe in protecting wildlife and the environment; and use high-quality ingredients that don't harm the planet or those who purchase them. Then we put all those brands in one place to make it easy for you.

If you want to avoid companies with financial ties to Trump, here's a quick list:

CNN reports that Robert Unanue has donated to Republicans in recent years, including to the Republican National Committee. Robert's brother, who is Goya's EVP, gave $100,000 to the anti-abortion National Right to Life Victory fund back in 2012 and other Unanue family members who are shareholders of Goya have given thousands of dollars to mostly Republican candidates and politicians, including Trump.
