Holiday Gift Guide 2018 // Best Gifts That Give Back

best gifts that give back gift guide | Adored by Alex

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours! So grateful and thankful for this little corner of mine on the Internet and for YOU who support Adored by Alex and help me continue to do what I love every single day. It’s become a little Thanksgiving tradition of mine to kickoff holiday gift guides with a special gift guide featuring the best gifts that give back. Because in the spirit of Thanksgiving, why not buy someone a holiday gift that can also provide to someone that’s less fortunate! 

I had a hard time narrowing down my choices in this gift guide, but I wanted to touch on something for everyone and every budget. Plus, there are some organizations in which the proceeds go towards that are lesser known than others. Whatever cause you might stand behind, I hope you’ll consider making a purchase to assist these organizations in doing some truly amazing work.

  1. Heart candle (30% of the retail price benefits Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry to assist in the campaign of ending childhood hunger in America)
  2. Girl Boss pouch (With every purchase, 20% of proceeds will be donated to Girls Inc. of New York City)
  3. Pretty in Pink Breast Cancer Awareness ornament (Proceeds from the purchase of this ornament will be donated to support the cause)
  4. Recycled polyester backpack (For every product sold, United By Blue will clean up one pound of waste from our world’s oceans and waterways)
  5. Embrace Ambition bracelet (100% of all net proceeds benefit the Tory Burch Foundation, which advances women’s empowerment and entrepreneurship)
  6. Stainless steel reusable bottles (A portion of proceeds are donated to UNICEF to help provide clean drinking water to children around the world)
  7. Holiday gift crate (A portion of the purchase price for this gift set benefits FEED who will then distribute meals to families in need) 
  8. Silhouette Ornaments (20% of the purchase price, of each ornament sold, will be donated to St. Jude’s Research Hospital,which is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases)
  9. Circle of Life necklace (With every purchase 30% of net profits from this style are donated to Bumi Sehat Foundation, which provides health and emergency care for families and expectant mothers in need)
  10. Creamy eye treatment (Sales have allowed for $100,000 to be donated toward Recycle Across America, a non-profit organization determined to make recycling simpler and more effective)
  11. (PRODUCT)RED denim apron (25% of the purchase price of every red apron will go to fight aids with (RED) organization)
  12. The Cleansing Micellar Water (For each limited edition size purchased, 30% of proceeds will be donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, with a maximum donation of $53,000)
  13. Bamboo set of three bangles (For each purchase from the Bamboo Collection, a select number of bamboo seedlings are planted. The wear bamboo, plant bamboo initiative has planted over one million seedlings)
  14. Embrace Ambition sweatshirt (100% of all net proceeds benefit the Tory Burch Foundation, which advances women’s empowerment and entrepreneurship) 
  15. Retro sunglasses (With every pair you purchase Toms will give sight to those in need with their one for one program)
  16. Lip Veil lipstick (With only 4% off the World’s population of elephants still alive, protecting them is essential. Proceeds from Lip Veil support Space for Giants and their work to preserve the migration path of elephants in Africa and keep them thriving for future generations)
  17. Nylon bow tote (150+ women in Masoro, Rwanda built a thriving self-run business —and produce all of Kate Spade’s On Purpose label accessories for sale through the company. Through their work and profits they’re helping to shape their community of 20,000)
