Purpose Is Not A Product
Purpose
Member Spotlight: Aruna Project
From Founder Ryan Berg
“When done right, purpose is not a product. It doesn’t exist to be sold. It exists to guide, push, empower, impassion. So our purpose is not to search out the highest quality fabric, but the highest quality life. It’s not ethically sourced materials, but wildly empowered women. It’s not just a product, it’s an experience.
And while our mission is squarely focused on creating lifelong freedom through employment opportunities for survivors, our purpose is to humbly provide an overwhelmingly full feeling of confidence, grounded in a spirited lifestyle, kind heart, and emotional freedom.”
