Green Amendments For The Generations

17 hours ago

This episode of #greengenes was especially amazing for Maya K. van Rossum and her daughter, Anneke. This episode they got to interview Jared Briggs, the founder of the hair care company Cult+King , whose products are not only good for a fabulous hair day but are actually good for the environment and your health! But, in this episode I was literally brought to tears when Jared completely surprised us by announcing that Green Amendments For The Generations would be receiving half of their 1% for the Planet donation. Thank you to Jared and the whole Cult + King crew for seeing the power of the #GreenAmendment movement and giving us this support. There are no words to describe how much it means not just to us but to so many who benefit from the work of this movement.You can listen to the full episode at bit.ly/JaredBriggsEp and watch it on YouTube at bit.ly/JaredBriggsVideo ...
