The Rugged Elegance Lifestyle Network is committed to supporting member selected Philanthropies.

Twelve (12%) of gross profits earned from all purchases made through the network will go to select Rugged Elegance Philanthropies.

At the end of each year, Rugged Elegance will generate a top 12 member nominated Philanthropies list, based on the number of supporters and equally contribute to each of these organizations. In 2009, Rugged Elegance gave to the following Philanthropies:
