In a world where shopping is often driven by speed and convenience, it's easy to forget that each purchase has power. At Erickson Life, we believe that business should serve a higher purpose. That’s why, from day one, we’ve committed to making our store about more than just products—we’re building a mission of community support and charitable impact.

So what exactly sets Erickson Life apart? It’s simple: 10% of every sale goes directly to local Delaware charities that uplift, empower, and support people right where we live and work.

In this post, we’ll show how Erickson Life isn’t just a brand—it’s a bridge between your everyday purchases and real change in the community.

Where Your Purchase Goes: The Charities We Support

We don’t just say we give—we show you where it goes. Here are the three key organizations supported by every purchase at Erickson Life:

---

🤍 Trinity Community Church (Hockessin, DE)

Trinity Community Church has long been a spiritual and service-based cornerstone of the local community. With a heart for outreach, the church offers:

• Food and clothing assistance for families in need

• Pastoral support and counseling

• Community events that bring people together

• Ministries aimed at healing, restoration, and spiritual growth

Every dollar donated helps them extend that outreach even further—serving more people with compassion and faith.

💙 Love Delaware

An initiative of Trinity Community Church, Love Delaware is dedicated to serving individuals and families in real, practical ways. Their approach is hands-on and heartfelt, focusing on:

• Acts of kindness like home repairs and meals for those in crisis

• Partnering with other local ministries and shelters

• Encouraging volunteerism and neighborly support

• Meeting needs without red tape

Love Delaware operates with the belief that everyone deserves dignity, and that small, consistent acts of care can change lives. When you support Erickson Life, you’re helping Love Delaware offer that hope.

🏅 Special Olympics Delaware

Few organizations embody the spirit of empowerment and inclusion like Special Olympics Delaware. Through their year-round sports programs, they support:

• Athletes with intellectual disabilities

• Events that promote physical health, self-esteem, and community inclusion

• Training and competition in a wide variety of sports

• Volunteer opportunities that foster empathy and connection

Supporting Erickson Life means you’re helping these athletes gain confidence, joy, and a sense of accomplishment—on and off the field.

Why These Charities?

We chose these organizations because they reflect our core values:

• Faith-based service

• Local impact

• Support for the underserved

• Celebration of human dignity and potential

Rather than giving to faceless national campaigns, we focus on charities we know and trust—organizations where we’ve seen real results and real change.

How Your Purchase Makes a Difference

Every time you check out at Erickson Life—whether you're buying a tactical pen, an audio Bible bracelet, or a unique gift item—you’re activating our 10% give-back commitment. That money goes straight to the charities listed above.

It’s not added on. It’s not optional. It’s built into our business model.

That means:

• A $50 order contributes $5 to local missions

• A $100 purchase helps feed, clothe, or encourage someone in need

• A single sale supports multiple lives—and builds community resilience

Why We Believe Business Should Give Back

Too many companies view giving as a side campaign—a one-time promotion or a seasonal charity drive. At Erickson Life, we see generosity as central to how we operate.

Giving:

• Creates shared purpose between us and our customers

• Builds long-term relationships with charitable partners

• Fosters a stronger, more connected Delaware community

• Reflects our Christian values and call to serve others

We’re not perfect, and we’re still growing—but this foundation will never change.
