What is Thankyou?
We live in a world of extremes. Thankyou exists to bridge two of them. Right now, there are approximately 692 million people stuck in extreme poverty. Meanwhile, consumers spend a staggering US$69.58 trillion a year. Thankyou sees a world where not one person lives in extreme poverty. Welcome to an idea that could fundamentally change the world we live in… for good. Step one: make products you’ll love, designed to be kind to humans and the planet. Step two: give every cent left (after covering costs in step one) to help end extreme poverty. This is consumerism reimagined. Thankyou is a social enterprise owned 100% by its charitable trust, committed to making a real difference.
