The Mary Kate Initiative
The heart of Love Out Loud lives in the spark of youth — the kind of fullness our friend Mary Kate embodied so effortlessly.
She lived loudly. She loved openly. She reminded us that joy is not something to postpone.
Love doesn’t disappear when someone is gone. It changes form. And how we carry that love forward is a choice.
We choose to carry it in joy.
We choose to carry it in connection.
We choose to carry it out loud.
Love Out Loud is committed to giving back directly to our community. Each season, we partner with a new local organization focused on mental health, grief support, youth empowerment, or community care.
25% of all Love Out Loud proceeds are donated to that season’s organization. This Spring 2026 (April-June) monthly donations will be sent to Willow House: a local Chicago non-profit organization dedicated to the needs of grieving children and their families.
To see where proceeds have gone this season and to follow along with the organizations we’re supporting, subscribe to our newsletter.
Transparency matters to us. Community matters to us.
And love, when practiced, creates change.
