GIV Back Initiative

The Good a GIV Gown Does Should Not Stop With One Patient.

GIV Gowns was created to bring greater dignity, comfort, and confidence to people during medical care. But we have always believed that responsibility should reach further. Through the GIV Back Initiative, a percentage of every purchase supports work well beyond the exam room.

Better for the person wearing it. Built to reach beyond them.

How it works

Every Purchase Helps GIV Back.

Whether a GIV Gown is purchased for you, someone you love, or the patients you serve, that purchase contributes to the same purpose. Each year, a percentage of GIV Gowns proceeds is committed to the GIV Back fund.

  1. You choose a better gown

    You choose a premium patient medical gown designed to improve coverage, comfort, confidence, and clinical access. There is no add-on donation and no extra step at checkout.

  2. A percentage is set aside

    A percentage of annual proceeds is committed to a dedicated GIV Back fund. As GIV Gowns grows, so does our ability to serve more people and communities.

  3. Support goes where it can help

    The fund supports practical efforts in disaster response, safe shelter, access to care, local economic opportunity, and education. We look for work that respects the people being served.

  4. We share what your purchase made possible

    As GIV Back projects are funded and completed, we will share the organizations, communities, and work supported — so the people who choose GIV can see where that support went.

Where GIV Back goes

Five Ways We Help Dignity Reach Further.

Needs look different in every community. Our areas of focus give the GIV Back Initiative a clear direction while allowing us to respond where thoughtful, practical support can make a meaningful difference.

  • Disaster response

    Timely support for trusted organizations serving communities affected by disaster. The goal is simple: help useful resources reach people when they need them most.

  • Safe shelter & stable housing

    Support for spaces that give children, families, and vulnerable individuals greater safety, stability, and a more secure place to move forward.

  • Local economic opportunity

    Investment in local makers, suppliers, small businesses, and community-led work that helps people earn, build, and create opportunity close to home.

  • Access to care

    Medical supplies, patient attire, and support for programs helping underserved communities receive care with greater dignity.

  • Education & practical skills

    Training, tools, and learning opportunities that help people strengthen their circumstances and create new possibilities for themselves and their communities.

Our Work Starts With the Gown. It Does Not End There.

GIV Gowns began with something I saw again and again during more than 15 years in healthcare: what a patient is asked to wear can shape how exposed, confident, and cared for that person feels before the first word of their appointment.

Together, we GIV back

Thank You for Helping GIV Reach Further.

Every GIV Gown begins by doing something better for the person wearing it. Through the GIV Back Initiative, that purchase also becomes part of relief, care, stability, education, and opportunity for others.

One better gown. A much wider reach.
