Crafting for Community: Our Partnership with Outside In
At Brine & Bard Designs, we believe that a business should be more than just a place to buy things—it should be a way to support the neighbors and communities that make Portland home. We started this shop to add color and organization to your world, but we also want our work to leave the world a little better than we found it.
That is why we’ve committed to a permanent partnership with our local community: for every single Pride item sold in our shop, we donate 10% of the sale price directly to Outside In.
Why Outside In?
Based right here in Portland, Outside In has been a lifeline for the LGBTQIA+ community and youth experiencing homelessness since 1968. They provide affirming healthcare, mental health support, and transitional housing for marginalized people.
Their mission to provide judgment-free care aligns perfectly with our belief that every person's story—and every person's identity—deserves to be celebrated and protected. Your purchase of a Pride keychain or sticker isn’t just a way to show your colors; it provides a tangible contribution toward medical care, hot meals, and safe spaces for Portland's LGBTQ+ youth.
Custom Printing & Bulk Orders for Portland Organizations
We may be starting small, but we are big on collaboration. We are actively looking to partner with other Portland-based non-profits, LGBTQ+ organizations, and small businesses to bring your custom visions to life.
If you are looking for branded gear that supports a local, queer-affirming maker, we are ready to work with you. We specialize in small-batch production, meaning you don't need to order thousands of items to get something high-quality and unique.
Our current custom capabilities include:
- Custom Vinyl Branding: High-durability labels and stickers for events, product packaging, or laptop decals.
- Tactile Keychains: Custom 3D printed or hand-poured resin tags—perfect for team gifts or membership tokens.
- Collaborative Design: We love working with organizations to create something exclusive to your cause.
