With the Holiday season fast approaching Christmas shopping is a high priority for many of us. I love to buy and give gifts, and make a special effort to find the perfect gift for each family member and my friends. But more importantly I like the gifts I buy to matter, and “shop with a cause.” With so many amazing social companies out there these days, what better way is there to shop this Christmas season? Consider shopping for your gifts at these amazing companies and let your purchase give back this year.
