Invite only

A better way to thank the people who give.

Kindred turns donor gifting into introductions, not interruptions. We are partnering with a small group of nonprofits and brands for our pilot season.

Most donor gifts are forgettable. Most brand sampling is wasted.

We've created a better way. Kindred connects nonprofits, brands, and the people who care about both, through gifts that mean something to everyone in the room.

How it works

A simple, dignified exchange.

  1. 01

    A charity hosts

    Galas, luncheons, walks, golf. The events you already run.

  2. 02

    Donors receive a Kindred bag

    Curated for the audience. Premium. Memorable.

  3. 03

    Brands give and receive

    Brands get impressions, introductions, and deductions.

  4. 04

    Everyone wins

    Donors get something they love. Brands earn an introduction. Charities receive unrestricted support.

A note from the founders

A note from the founders

Kindred means closeness, whether by family or by shared purpose. We chose the name because we saw three groups with a common ethos but no simple, intentional way to connect: the donors who fund good work, the nonprofits doing it, and the brands that want to reach and support them. The connection is already there. It just needs someone to build it on purpose. That is Kindred.

It started at a gala on a Friday evening. Barma was being honored. Three different people at our table that evening asked her the same question. How do we get good products for our swag bags? She had spent years in retail, knowing which brands wanted to reach which audiences. Garth had spent his entire career in tech building the systems that connect them. By Sunday in our kitchen, we had started to design the answer.
