Your Purchase. Our Impact.

As a proudly LGBTQ+ women-owned business, advocacy and community care are woven into everything we do.

We believe building a meaningful brand also means helping build a more equitable, compassionate future one where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

That’s why SM5 is committed to giving back in a way that’s intentional and ongoing. Through our Your Purchase. Our Impact. pledge, we donate 5% of all sales* to Girls Inc. of Sarasota County, an organization doing vital work to support and uplift the next generation.

Since 2022, with the support of our SM5 community, these contributions have helped fund programs and experiences that empower girls to grow with confidence, resilience, and opportunity.

Their work centers on girls aged 5–18, particularly those from underserved communities and those navigating complex, intersecting challenges related to identity, access, and equity.

For us, this is what modern business should look like: transparent, values led, and community driven. Every candle you light, or SM5 product you purchase becomes part of something bigger - an investment in potential, in representation, and in lasting change.

Your purchase is our impact. Together, we create it.

Thank you for being part of this journey and for supporting a purpose led small business.
