Key CSR Pillars

  1. Empowering Communities Through Education & Voting Rights A&W Greek Shop supports educational and voting rights initiatives to empower future generations. A portion of our profits goes toward building an experiential voting rights museum and campsite in Selma, Alabama. This museum will honor the legacy of David Hall, who played a pivotal role in the Selma to Montgomery march. We encourage our customers and partners to join us in supporting educational programs, scholarships, and voter registration drives.

  2. Sustainability & Environmental Stewardship We are committed to reducing our environmental impact. A&W Greek Shop prioritizes sourcing eco-friendly materials and partners with manufacturers who adhere to sustainable production practices. We minimize packaging waste and continuously explore ways to create sustainable, high-quality products for our customers.

  3. Ethical Sourcing & Fair Labor Practices We value ethical business relationships with our suppliers, ensuring that every product is made under fair labor conditions. A&W Greek Shop is committed to upholding high standards for workers' rights and safety, promoting ethical practices throughout our supply chain.

  4. Cultural Preservation & Celebration Our products celebrate the rich cultural heritage of Black Greek-letter organizations. We take pride in preserving and promoting the legacy of these organizations by offering high-quality, culturally significant products that help members express pride in their membership and heritage.

  5. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) As a Black woman-owned business, diversity, equity, and inclusion are integral to our values. A&W Greek Shop is dedicated to promoting DEI in all aspects of our business, from hiring practices to the partnerships we cultivate. We actively seek opportunities to uplift minority-owned businesses and promote gender and racial equity.

  6. Community Engagement & Giving Back We are committed to giving back to the communities we serve. Through donations, sponsorships, and partnerships with nonprofit organizations, we support initiatives that align with our values, such as scholarships for underprivileged students, mental health awareness, and community development projects.
