Live Good is a diverse and inclusive educational and community-based company. Employees comprise of student-workers who earn college units for learning about ethical business practices and sustainable manufacturing, packaging assistants hired from the Goodwill of Orange County Job Development Program, for participants with disabilities including autism, spina bifida, down syndrome, and deafness, and a team of 12 seamstresses-about half who are local moms.

With stay-at-home orders and social distancing practices becoming the norm, workers unable to perform their duties remotely have been temporarily laid-off to ensure their safety from COVID-19. As production continues for its certified non-GMO organic sheets, duvets, blankets, and pillows the company took immediate action to help in the fight against the coronavirus, by manufacturing protective face masks for local seniors as well as UCI Medical Center.
"It took a global pandemic to put everything into perspective. When life and death are at the forefront of your mind, the little things fade away. What really matters is love, family, community, and the chance to serve others. In the end, we are all human with the same basic needs... We are all equal and profoundly connected." -Jennifer Chi, Founder and CEO of Live Good Inc.
