From our Leadership

“In a world that’s growing increasingly fragmented and siloed, Loop & Tie is still making a bet on connections. And we don’t just mean connections between people – though that’s central to everything we do – but connections between vital economic resources. Corporate budgets to small businesses. Consumers to causes they care about. And, of course, senders to the recipients they want to keep building relationships with.”
—Meredith McManus, VP of Marketing at Loop & Tie
Mk Getler-Porizkova, CMO of Loop & Tie

Our Vision
For Gifting
Differently

Intentional gifting is the opposite of gifting as a reflex or to check a box. It means putting thought into the reason for gifting, the message that you want to send (literally and figuratively!), and incorporating the gift into a larger connection strategy.

The impact of a gift

We think about the impact of a gift both in terms of what it does for your business and how it affects the environment. After all, both metrics matter and you shouldn’t have to sacrifice one for the other.

How can I gift more
intentionally?

1.

Start with your ideal outcome

What do you want your recipient to feel, think, or do as a result ofreceiving your gift?

2.

Consider the power of your budget

Corporate budgets are a hidden way to help power small businessesand strengthen communities.

3.

Aim for zero waste

By giving your recipients the option to choose what they want,you significantly decrease the chance that your gift ends up 
in a landfill.

About Our Makers:
Ocean Bottle
London, UK

Ocean Bottle is a certified B corp on a mission to stop 7 billion plastic bottles from entering the ocean while keeping you hydrated in style. In fact, every bottle sold funds the collection of 25lbs of plastic before it reaches the sea! And, every time you log a water bottle refill on the Ocean Bottle app, you unlock even more plastic collection - turning daily habits into real impact.

Each Ocean Bottle represents a ripple effect, from cleaner seas to empowered families, creating change that travels far beyond the shore.

Partnering with
Environmentally-
Focused Organizations

ocean plastic by stopping it in rivers,
