With the holidays approaching, we're all scrambling to find the perfect gift to give to our coworkers, moms, friends, and partners. What better way is there to celebrate the season of giving than to find a present that gives back to the community? In the spirit of giving, I have compiled a list of some gifts that give back. Whether you're buying for someone else, or shopping for yourself, here are some ways to make your purchases a little more impactful.
1. The Dogist Collection. If you need a gift for a dog lover, The Dogist Collection, the shop of the popular Instagram page @thedogist, asks you to join them in #feedingfriends. For every item purchased, they pledge to donate a meal to a dog in need. Our furry friends deserve some holiday love too!
2. GLDN handmade jewelry is both simple and elegant. These affordable and high quality pieces compliment any outfit while making a statement. The hand gestures collection donates 10% of its profits to the Brain & Research Foundation to research mental illness. The la femme collection was created to celebrate femininity, and 50% of profits go to care.org to empower women around the world.
3. Cuddle + Kind. One of my favorite gifts for little ones this year is a Cuddle + Kind doll. These adorable plush dolls provide sustainable, fair trade income to over 750 Peruvian women. Additionally, for every doll sold, 10 meals are donated to children in need. The smaller dolls (13 inches) are $50 and the regular dolls (20 inches) are $70.
4. STATE. For the practical gift giver, a backpack is a great gift for anyone on your list. For every bag purchased, STATE will give a backpack filled with tools for success to a local child in need. With backpacks for men, women, and children, and a commitment to social justice, STATE will brighten the holidays for everyone involved.
5. RepYourWater has a variety of products to outfit your favorite fisherman/fisherwoman this holiday season. 3% of every RepYourWater purchase from the Fish. Explore. Conserve collection is donated to their conservation partners, including Colorado Trout Unlimited, Great Lakes NWF, Idaho Wildlife Federation, and many more.
Giving to others makes us feel good anytime of year, but with the holidays around the corner, you can expand your giving even more with gifts that give back. Comment some of your other favorite brands that give to the community in the comments below!
