The Saltwater Collective may be a stylish clothing brand, but it is so much more than that. Not only is it expanding to include other products such as water bottles and candles, it raises money for ocean conservation, a mission close to all three founders of the company. As written on its website, "One item at a time, we're reminding our communities that the ocean is relevant to everyone, whether you live in a big city or on the coast, and the choices we make everyday matter."
An admirable mission, The Saltwater Collective is yet another example of a brand bringing value to the world in an accessible way. Speaking to younger generations in particular, it raises awareness as much as it does funds.
