Cotopaxi creates innovative outdoor products and experiences including packs, gear, and clothing for men and women. They design and manufacture sustainably-made outdoor equipment that serves adventure enthusiasts while supporting their social mission.

Cotopaxi operates under the mission to fund sustainable poverty relief, move people to do good, and inspire adventure. Their tagline "Gear For Good" reflects their core belief that giving is fundamental to their business model, with the goal of ending extreme poverty in our lifetime.

The company makes a significant impact by dedicating at least 1% of their annual revenue to the Cotopaxi Foundation, a Utah-based 501c3 nonprofit organization. Through this foundation, they boost grantmaking, democratize impact, and make a bigger difference in communities they serve. Every product purchase contributes to their poverty alleviation efforts, while their "Guaranteed for Good" program ensures sustainable design with lifetime warranties and repairs.

Impact model

Cotopaxi operates a dual-impact business model where they donate 1% of annual revenue to the Cotopaxi Foundation and distribute 100% of customer monetary donations to the foundation monthly. Every product purchase automatically contributes to their poverty relief efforts, while customers can also donate directly to amplify their impact.

The Cotopaxi Foundation serves as their grantmaking arm, focusing on sustainable poverty relief and community development. Their approach aims to boost grantmaking capacity, democratize impact distribution, and create meaningful change in the communities they touch through strategic funding and partnerships.
