Our Story

Built by an 18-year-old cashier who saw a problem.

Working as a cashier at Key Food in Staten Island, I watched thousands of plastic bags go out the door every single day. I also watched local businesses struggle to reach their neighbors — paying for ads nobody sees.

Lift4Cause is my answer to both problems. We print reusable bags with local business ads and distribute them through grocery stores. Every bag replaces plastic. Every sale funds a local charity. Every scan is a real impression from a real neighbor.

We're not a corporation. We're a startup. And every dollar we make stays in the community.

"Not Just A Bag."

Every bag carries a local business ad on one side and a community cause on the other. It's advertising that actually means something.

Your Impact

Every dollar does more than advertise.

When you sponsor a run, your money fights plastic pollution, funds a local charity, and puts your business in front of real neighbors — all at the same time.

Fighting Plastic Pollution

Every bag replaces hundreds of single-use plastics. We track the environmental impact in real time.

Funding Local Charities

A portion of every sponsor fee goes directly to a neighborhood charity voted on by the community.

Supporting Local Causes

From food pantries to youth programs — sponsors don't just advertise, they invest in the community.

Building a Movement

We're a startup, not a corporation. Every dollar stays local and every decision is community-driven.
