I am all about making purchases towards a purpose. Whenever shopping in a different country or town, I like to hunt for unique items that are made by locals or buy from a company that promises all proceeds go to social causes. Instead of gifting your girl the same boring bottle of body lotion this Christmas, choose a present that will not only bring a smile to her face but also help support others & specific causes close to the heart.
Pura Vida Bracelets
This company is amazing! Two College buddies fell in love with Costa Rica & made it their mission to create “Pura Vida.” Each item is designed by artisans around the world & of course, every purchase goes full circle going right back to the people & charities. I was so happy to find a bracelet towards Thyroid awareness & their rings makes for perfect finger candy.
Alex & Ani
I have always been in love with the cute charms & foundation of Alex & Ani. Now you can choose a bangle focused on making a Positive Impact.
MochiSU
It’s incredible what you come across scrolling an insta-feed. These bright colored, detailed woven bags caught my eye like love at first sight. MochiSU has a collection of handmade accessories created in Colombia by Indigenous tribes giving them an opportunity to fair trade & a brighter future.
Generous Coffee
Ya’ll know I am obsessed with coffee & usually take delight in sipping my morning cup watching the bachelor with Tiff. Our love for Ben Higgins overflowed when we saw his pursuit of changing the world alongside Habitat For Humanity to start Generous Coffee Co. Be part of the change & gift ya gal with beans from Honduras, Guatemala, & Rwanda.
31 Bits
Not only am I all for the girl power of this brand but also the purpose behind it. Three showstoppers came together to uplift women & give them a platform to support their talents. Each piece is ethically made from around the map which gives any outfit a pop of character.
One Hope
Need a perfect gift for the lush in your life? Not only does One Hope have a few blends to choose from, but the bottles are also ADORABLE. You’ll feel the Christmas spirit knowing that your contribution goes towards non-profits such as P.S. Arts, The Hope Heart Institute, & Whole Planet Foundation.
What’s on your Christmas list this year?
