December is here and this means we have
officially entered into the most festive month of the year. With Christmas
right around the corner, our clients often ask us for gift suggestions. We love
to remember that Christmas is about giving and not just about receiving, and so
with this in mind here are some of our favorite brands which allow you to give
a holiday gift while giving a little something back at the same time. Be it for
a friend or a relative, here are some great ideas which allow you to give something
twice, with proceeds contributing to a worthy cause.
1.
The Body Shop
Discover why giving has never felt so good. This year when you buy
one of their specially-selected gifts, you’ll be helping them to provide over
six million educational lessons in war-torn areas around the globe. From make-up
to bath products to gift baskets, the Body Shop has something for everyone, no
matter what gender or age. Click here to see their selection.
2.
Toms Shoes
With their One for One campaign, for every pair of comfy
canvas TOMS shoes you give this Christmas, a second pair goes to a child in
need. TOMS are also currently promoting the 12 days of Christmas giving from
December 1st-12th, which donates a portion of its
proceeds to a different charity every day. Click here to learn more.
3.
Kiehl’s
The apothecary
will be donating $100,000 to provide 1 million meals to families on behalf of
Feeding America. Check out their Christmas gift sets here priced at a fraction of their retail worth!

the world. Check out their website to
