MapleTwig has announced they will be partnering with the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) by donating a portion of the proceeds from their new wide-brim summer Straw Hat in support of the ACLU’s fight to protect the rights of all American citizens.

This partnership aims to help bring awareness to some of the legal issues Americans and immigrants are facing under the Trump administration. While there’s been a great deal of confusion surrounding the executive orders regarding immigration, travel bans and deportation, the ACLU aims to bring clarity and protect the civil liberties of those whose rights are being violated.

“We are the nation’s leading civil liberties advocate in the Supreme Court. With over 200 staff attorneys and an extensive network of cooperating attorneys, we handle thousands of cases each year on behalf of clients whose rights have been violated.” according the ACLU website.

There is a considerable amount of support for this cause from the women’s rights movements, Black Lives Matters movements, LGBTQ movements in support of American values as minority groups band together to fight for freedom and shared values.

The wide brimmed straw hat comes in hot pink and white with the option of decorative red, white and blue flowers to symbolize freedom, liberty, and justice for all, which closely aligns with the ACLU’s mission. It’s a fresh take on the “PussyHats” made popular by the Women’s Rights Marches and protests earlier this year.

“When someone wears this hat they can say they are proud to be an American, support the ACLU, women’s rights, immigrant rights, and take a stand as a person who is advocating for a better America. It’s a true way to voice you values and it’s a win for everyone,” said CEO and founder Jeremy Mentz.

Mentz said the vision of the MapleTwig brand is to leverage capitalism in a way that is responsible by supporting small businesses, while also contributing to organizations under threat of being defunded by the new administration’s policies and proposals. “The ACLU fights every single day for the dignity and respect of all Americans and that is a cause MapleTwig is behind 100 percent,” Mentz said.

Mapletwig was founded on January 21, 2017 and aims to help men, women and families express their values and better communicate their ideas by creating and designing products and messaging that makes it easier to talk about important issues, identify allies and change minds.
