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 our annual proceeds is directed toward practical work that provides relief, expands access to care, creates opportunity, and helps people move forward with dignity.
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 Initiative and used to support carefully chosen work in communities near and far.
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.
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.
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 and creates more than a temporary moment of relief.
We Share What Your Purchase Helped Make Possible
As GIV Back projects are funded and completed, we will share the organizations, communities, and work supported. We want the people who choose GIV to see where that support went and what it helped accomplish.
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.
GIV Back Updates
As projects are funded, we will share the work, the partners involved, and the communities reached so you can see what choosing GIV helped put into motion.
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 visit even begins.
We built a better gown because dignity should be designed into care. The GIV Back Initiative carries that same belief beyond the care setting by supporting people and communities facing a different kind of vulnerable moment.
When you choose GIV, you are helping us improve one patient's experience today and extend practical support to someone else tomorrow.
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.
That is what giving back means to us: using the growth of GIV Gowns to create more dignity in more places.
One better gown. A much wider reach.
