Christmas Gifts That Give Back
There’s only TWO WEEKS until Christmas! Don’t panic, I’ve got you covered with the ten gifts listed below. While I love creating my gift guide, I also love finding gifts that will not only be loved and enjoyed, but that give back to really great causes. From beauty products to sweet treats to gym gear, there is something for everyone and so many great charities that will benefit! If you haven’t finished your shopping yet, take a look and consider giving a gift that will give back this Christmas.

MINI (RED)
Therabody — $189.00
I’ve spoken about Thera guns before and they’ve even been in my gift guides, but this year they are offering gifts that give back! 100% of all money generated by (RED) products goes to help strengthen health systems in sub-Saharan Africa. Never a better time to buy!

DO GOOD DISHES
Helen Levi — $48.00-62.00
Dishes are a great idea for someone who has everything, you can never have too many mugs or bowls! These dishes are called the “Do Good” dishes and 50% of the proceeds will be donated to Green Worker Cooperatives, who’s mission is to 'build, grow, and sustain worker-owned green businesses to create a strong, local, and democratic economy rooted in racial and gender equity.'
HOLIDAY 3-PACK
DoughP — $51.00
Who doesn’t love the gift of sweet treats? This cookie dough tastes great and gives back! Through every purchase, this company works to raise awareness and funds to support addiction recovery and mental health efforts.
This is only a fraction of the gifts that you can find that give back this Christmas, but I think they are great ones. If you know of any other “gifts that give back” leave them below. Christmas is about giving and anyone would be happy to know their gift helped someone in need this year.
Much Love,
