In 2024 Dr. Bronner’s All-One International Initiative supported 34 organizations in 14 different countries. The All-One International Initiative utilizes a stakeholder funding model that fosters a collaborative approach to identifying and reviewing potential partnerships, with crucial local input provided by Dr. Bronner’s international staff, distributors, and other partners. Funding from the All-One International Initiative helps local organizations make a positive impact in their communities on company-aligned issues. The global initiative has given away over $1 million in funding since 2019. Plans for the 2025 program are currently underway, including for All-One Canada.

“Dr. Bronner’s support has been crucial to us and our ability to provide grants to a long list of varied grassroots organizations making transformative social changes in Canada,” said Stefanie Gude, a Trustee at Groundswell, Community Justice Trust Fund. “We appreciate that partners like Dr. Bronner’s understand that investing in the vital work of local, grassroots organizations and changemakers on the ground is part of the solution to building lasting infrastructures to support new visions for our societies.”
