 As the holidays are fast approaching, I urge you to spend wisely! Did you know that you can shop for yourself and help someone else at the same time? Several shops offer items where all or part of the proceeds go to charitable causes.
This lip balm and cozy is a collaboration of 3 artists, listed by Loopy4ewe ! 100% of the proceeds go to the 2010 Weekend to End Breast Cancer!
This Butterfly Felted Ball by Zs Knees has playful colours and a portion of the proceeds benefits AHope, an orphanage in Ethiopia.
How about this beautiful chainmaille bracelet by LivnGood Jewelry ? I have always admired the intricacies of chainmaille!
Need a reason to feel GOOD about SHOPPING? Search for items that support Charity! While you are shopping this Holiday season, remember the causes! Giving items that support charitable causes is TWO gifts in one!
