Luxury is a relative concept

Luxury is a relative concept

Here at Borges & Scott we are, of course, passionate about our hats, but we know there are more pressing concerns for huge numbers of people around the globe.  

The comfort of a place to call home, the safety of the same bed to sleep in every night, enough food to eat and a good education should not be luxury items, but sadly this is the case in some of the countries where we have trading partners.

We feel we have a responsibility, both as a business and as decent people, to provide support to the communities we work with.  As a minimum we give 5% of our profits to charities every year.  The main causes we love and support on a regular basis are:

Alalay

Alalay Children Alalay provides a loving home and opportunities to street children in Bolivia. As well as providing comfort, support and basic healthcare, Alalay’s mission is to help these children to help themselves by providing education and skills development, and establishing and monitoring practical production projects which will become self-financing and teach new skills to the children.
