Tom’s of Maine started with a $5,000 loan. This is why the popular natural personal care product brand is paying it forward by supporting the next generation of young change makers. The Tom’s of Maine Incubator offers financial and professional support to five young BIPOC [Black, Indigenous, People of Color] environmentalists in order to elevate their visions and help them scale solutions that will benefit people and the planet. Their projects span from ocean and river conservation, to creating green spaces, to engaging other BIPOC voices to become involved in environmental efforts.
