The mission of Protect US is to redefine our economy, back to the system where it benefits all members of society and lives in harmony with nature. The vision of Protect US is to ensure a society in where our economy works to benefit all members and does not discriminate on the basis of race, age, gender or any artificial divider of the human race.... Protect US' goals are simple, to create an economy that works to benefit all members of society irregardless of age, gender, race or any other artificial divider. One of our current focuses is an all inclusive campaign to establish socially responsible bank in the state of Virginia to ensure better allocation of our municipal funds!

Austin came up with the idea for Ethyk back in 2018, after asking himself why there was not an easy to way to see how sustainable or ethical a company was while shopping online. Austin serves on the Board of FairVote Virginia, his local church, and SAN Investing Collective, a sustainable energy finance LLC. He has also spoken across the Mid-Atlantic region on divestment and sustainable finance. Jillian Siegal is a junior in the S.I.
