Our Story
Can you remember a time when you’ve helped someone in desperate need, and an uncontrollable emotion and satisfaction came over you?
When you help someone or donate, your brain releases hormones that can boost your mood: Oxytocin, Serotonin, Dopamine, and Endorphins. These hormones can counteract stress hormones, boost self-esteem, elevate happiness, combat feelings of depression and increase feelings of social connection.
Our founder, Jason Rodriguez, developed a profound connection and realization around this feeling of giving back. It became an intrinsic part of his character and eventually evolved into the main pillar of the brand.​

Our Logo
Keeping the Spirit of Daisy Alive
In 2005, our logo was created by Daisy Martinez, based on a sketch our founder and his friend Rupen drew on a napkin.
In July 2009, Daisy lost her battle against cancer shortly after we reached out to Daisy's mom to make a promise to honor her spirit by preserving the logo in tribute to her.
