Vox actually did a pretty nice article about it, and in case you were wondering what charities it is supposed to be benefiting

Ben and Jerry’s isn’t making an empty advertising gesture. They company has supported Bernie Sanders, and made an ice cream flavor to raise awareness of global warming. They run progressive news stories on their websites and social media. They pay their workers a living wage. Even their brownies are sourced from a company that specializes in hiring people out of jail to help them get their lives back on track. They’re open supporters of socialism. I understand the idea of “no ethical consumption” but Ben and Jerry’s isn’t just adopting a political message for nothing.
Ye…unlike Pepsi and its horrifyingly awful “Give the oppressors a can of pepsi and maybe they won’t beat you unconcious with their night sticks” ad that they did, Ben and Jerry’s actually does GENUINELY support progressive and good causes and isn’t just trying to make a buck
