BARE’s “Stand Behind the Brand” Company Feature: Give Perf
It’s refreshing to see an organization that not only brings a heightened level of quality and design to the products it sells, but also has been conceptualized with a mission of goodness at it’s core. The brainchild of Casey Courter and Brooke Beranek, Give Perf is a company on a mission,“To make positive change around the world by selling perf products with a story.”
What is “perf” you may ask? The visionaries behind this forward thinking organization say it comes in many forms. “Bundling up with a hot cup of coffee. The sound of the rain on a tin roof. Dreaming under the stars. A crackling fire on a cold night. The smell of the salty sea.”
It seems this feeling of “perf” is something intangible, something that varies from person to person, and place to place, but it suggests an emotion that resonates within us all, a connective and understood force shared throughout humanity. Perf is about finding those places, situation, and feelings that allow us to experience the highest form of ourselves, to exist in a state of radiance, and basque in the creative expression that exists within us all.





For Casey and Brooke, a life focused on travel and giving has turned into a business. Give Perf creates relationships with different makers of products ranging from blankets made by hand on looms in Mexico, to smaller items such as pocket sized notebooks, hand-made leather cup radiators, to detailed, hand stamped stationary collections.
What do the curated Perf items all have in common? Besides being unique, design savvy, and handcrafted in one way or another, they all offer customers a chance to slow down and enjoy the moment in a constant quest to “get perf.”
You would expect an organization like Get Perf to have some aspect of community involvement, but Casey and Brooke have created a unique, yet perfectly aligned giving platform that truly speaks to their company values. Give Perf identifies and partners with different organizations that believe in the power of giving and address crucial issues for individuals and communities around the world. Once selected, Give Perf donates 15% of their sales profits to these organizations to fulfill crucial needs.
Give Perf’s current mission – to provide shoes for all the children in Bali orphanages through the organization Loving Orphans Global.
This holiday season let’s support the true changemakers; people like Casey and Brooke who have the insight and drive to merge beautiful product design, business, and a global perspective on community involvement.
To quote Casey and Brooke, the idea is simply “perf.”
