Justice Cream is a mutual aid vegan ice cream project that donates 100% of profits to fund grassroots social justice work. Each flavor reflects a social issue and is tied to a community-based organization. Ingredients are plant-based and ethically sourced, to optimize environmental sustainability and promote fair labor practices. Ice cream will be distributed through pop ups and small/co-op markets to support small businesses, and shipping will be available depending on funding. Justice Cream is women-of-color-run, but community driven/owned.
The Business Model: Nonprofit on Paper (501c3 status), Mutual Aid Vehicle in Spirit
We pass through all profits to frontline liberation workers. Overhead (supplies, kitchen space, staffing, etc.) will be funded by a portion of revenue and we hope to complement that with donations and grants to maximize donations to community-organization partners.
The Ask: Financial Support / Donations

Batch freezer, base mix machine, hand mixer: $30000
Annual Licensed Kitchen Space + Storage Lease: $12000
Prototyping Equipment (Low-air churn): $2310
Website / Office Tools: $942
1.0 FTE + Benefits (Recipe Developer): $65000
0.8 FTE for first 6 months (Support Staff): $20000
Trademark / Licenses / Incorporation Paperwork: $4500
