Your skin absorbs our all-natural products in a minute, but Beurre's impact lasts way after your skincare routine is done. We are committed to progress and have supported the following health and social advocacy organizations to move the change we want to see in the world.
THEY OFTEN CRY OUTREACH (TOCO)
They Often Cry Outreach is a U.S. based 501(c)(3) not for profit children's charity founded by Goodwill Ambassador, reggae artist and humanitarian Taj Weekes and our founder, Shirley Menard. TOCO's mission is to raise awareness and address the issues that affect Caribbean youth through comprehensive projects and initiatives ranging from sports programs, a diabetes awareness, a domestic violence awareness campaign, animal rights awareness, and artistic programs.
In support of CRI, we will be donating 25% of proceeds from the sale of Beurre Shea Butter Lavender Body Cream year round. Our Shea Butter Lavender Body Cream is one of the best creams to support those undergoing cancer treatments. One of the side effects of chemotherapy treatment is the impact it has on the skin's natural moisture. Chemo results in dry, itchy, flaky skin that cause irritation and affect the growth of skin cells.
Lavender is commonly used as an herbal remedy to improve mood and as a sleep aid. It reduces anxiety, depression and pain, and improves sleep.
The Cancer Research Institute (CRI) funds breakthrough cancer research and cures for cancers of all kinds. CRI's commitment to breast cancer research and breast cancer immunotherapy goes back nearly four decades, when they first began to fund a coalition of physicians and surgeons from over 15 medical institutions working together to develop a coordinated breast cancer diagnosis and treatment program.
