Alright friends, it’s that time of year. We’re all frantically shopping for gifts so I wanted to share this roundup with you guys because why not support brands that sell awesome items AND give back at the same time! Of course you’re free to spend moolah however you please, but in case you wanted info on socially-conscious companies, I gotchu.
Instead of posting a roundup with a bajillion links, I’m going to list them under categories to make things as easy as possible. I’ll also be listing their cause or donation info next to their hyperlink. If I missed a company you love, just shoot me a message or leave a comment below and I’ll add it to the list.
