LAFD Foundation Donations

When a Place Feels Like Home, You Give Back.

Los Angeles has held a special place in my heart for as long as I can remember. It’s where I escape to when life in London feels overwhelming—Santa Monica’s sunsets, the endless ocean, and the golden skies have become my sanctuary. Every year, I return to this city, my haven, to feel grounded, inspired, and completely at peace.

It’s not just the breathtaking beauty of LA that has captured me, but also the warmth of its people and the resilient spirit of the community. These are the colours, the energy, and the emotions that shaped Matcha and Beyond's rebranding. Every shade of our design is a reflection of Santa Monica and Malibu’s sunsets, a love letter to the place that has given me so much.

Today, with a heavy but hopeful heart, I want to give back to this incredible city that continues to inspire me. For the next three months, 10% of our sales will be donated to The LAFD Foundation, an organisation that supports the brave firefighters protecting LA’s people and its nature.

This is my way of saying thank you to a city that has given me solace, creativity, and joy. Together, we can make a difference.

To everyone in Los Angeles facing challenges—know that we stand with you, we see you, and we are sending love your way. This is not just a donation; it’s a small gesture of gratitude to a city I will always inspire me.

From London to LA, with love and matcha,
