$40 gets you a bunch of Clarins skin-perfecting goodies AND feeds 10 American school children!
Hate throwing away those plastic lipstick tubes? With Plantlove lipstick, you don't have to. Instead, plant the empty tube in the ground and watch as wildflowers grow! Beautify your world and give $2 to St. Jude's Children's Hospital at the same time!
For only $5 you can give a beautiful, classic necklace and help to stop domestic violence against women--Avon gives the net profit of $3.04 to their foundation!
Also from Avon, a stylish hot pink and white scarf that fights breast cancer. Sometimes these sorts of things are tacky, but I would wear this one! $10
Buy a cute, limited edition t-shirt designed by a senior citizen in Africa who cares for orphans and feed an orphan for a month. Your name will be painted on an "Honor Wall" in Africa as well. Not bad for $29! I love that a 91-year-old lady designed this one.
Imagine being so poor that you have to scrounge through garbage to make a living. These bags are made by women of India who are in just that situation--and the unique thing is that they are recycled from the plastic bags that the women find in the dump. Don't worry, they're clean and safe! I think they look like a great present for the guy on your list who can't be separated from his laptop for a minute. $18
Help save the rain forests and support indigenous artisans by purchasing a cruelty-free leather bank--too cute! I like that it snaps shut rather than having one of those impossible rubber stoppers. $12.95
These are just a few fun ideas for gifts that give back. I'll be adding more, so check back often!
