Committed to creating an impact

At Pillow May, supporting our community and contributing to meaningful change is an important part of how we work.

 

Through our partnership with B1G1 (Buy1Give1), we donate 1% of our turnover from our services to carefully selected charitable projects around the world. Alongside supporting global initiatives, we are also passionate about helping charities and organisations, creating real change within local communities and beyond.

Supporting change through B1G1

Our partnership with B1G1 allows us to create positive impact through everyday business activities.

Each time we support a client, complete a project or celebrate a milestone as a team, we contribute towards initiatives focused on education, health, sustainability and community development around the world.

Examples of activities linked to our giving include:

  • Filing a set of accounts
  • Submitting a tax return
  • Client event participation
  • Celebrating company and team achievements

B1G1 provides us with regular impact reports, helping us see the difference these contributions are making.

Proud supporters of Free to Shine

One of the charities closest to our hearts is Free to Shine, an incredible organisation working in Cambodia to help prevent child trafficking through education, nutrition, family support and empowerment.

We first discovered Free to Shine after hearing founder Nicky Mih speak at a B1G1 conference. Her passion, determination and practical approach to prevention left a lasting impression on our team and inspired us to get involved.

Rather than focusing on rescue after exploitation has happened, Free to Shine works to prevent children from becoming vulnerable to trafficking in the first place. By supporting girls and their families with access to education, healthcare, food and community support, the charity helps create safer futures and long-term opportunities. As Free to Shine says:

“We don’t rescue or save children from sex trafficking; we work to prevent them from being trafficked in the first place.”

Their work creates meaningful and sustainable change, helping girls stay in education, strengthening family stability and breaking cycles of poverty and exploitation within communities.

We are incredibly proud to support a charity that is creating such meaningful and measurable change in the lives of young girls and their communities.

Visiting Free to Shine in Cambodia

For our 10th birthday, members of the Pillow May team visited Cambodia on a self-funded trip to meet the Free to Shine team and see the impact of their work first-hand.

The experience gave us an even deeper understanding of the charity’s mission and strengthened our commitment to supporting the incredible work they do.
