Our mission is to make a billion people smile.
Yup, that’s a lot of smiles, but we’re well on our way! Making people happy is at the core of our company.

Giving back is baked into our business ideology. We want to be a positive force for people, communities, and the planet.

We’ve been giving back since the beginning of our company. Currently, VidDay is supporting global reforestation efforts by donating a portion of net proceeds to planting trees — with over 100,000 trees already planted.

Previously, VidDay donated a portion of every video sold to help build a school for children who are in critical need of an adequate learning environment. VidDay was able to impact the lives of the children in rural regions of Laos in a more significant way.

We contributed to building new classrooms, giving access to clean water and an electrical supply. School furniture including desks, textbooks, pencils, paper, etc. As well as sanitation facilities. Learn more about our partnership with S.K.L here.

We've partnered with One Tree Planted, a 501C3 non-profit based in Vermont. Local partner organizations and community volunteers plant trees in areas where there has been deforestation.

So far, VidDay has planted over 100,000 trees in four regions, including the Amazon Rainforest, British Columbia, California, and Australia.
