Are you like me and you are having a hard time coming up with gift ideas for family and friends? Why not shop with a purpose? I love to find ways to spend my money and yet put it to good work too! Have you heard of CARE.org ? They are a humanitarian group that has a catalogue of gifts that serve more than one purpose. They fight poverty and empower girls and women. A humanitarian effort that is a worthy cause to purchase from. What a great place to find neat gifts. Check out what all I found!

They have some lovely holiday shopping ideas. These gifts will mean the world to someone who has very little.

You can give a months supply of food. $28 buys someone a months supply of food. Let that sink in.

Give the gift of producing their own soap. If these ladies can produce their soap they can sell their soap and then support their families. That is truly a gift that keeps on giving! With your gift from CARE.org you will not only be gifting responsibly you’ll let the recipient who already has so much feel good about the gift they received.

care.org has gifts that give back When you give the gift of a backpack and a starter school kit you are giving the gift of an education to children who normally do not have the things they need to simply learn. What a tremendous gift that is.

When you’re giving a gift this season make sure to gift responsibly. Give something of yourself that makes such a difference in someone’s life. Give the gift of love from CARE.Org.

    We didn’t get a chance to do the Operation Shoebox this year and I think we will donate to one of these instead. Thanks for the idea!

    It’s about to share our blessing, we do share and donate to others and this would be perfect for them.

    I love the idea of giving a charitable gift instead of just more stuff to pile up around the house. I will have to look into this.

    This year I asked our relatives to donate their money. We are so blessed I’d rather know that someone is getting something they need!

    I always make it a point to gift responsibly. Material things can only make people temporarily, while thoughtful gifts can last for a long time.

    I love these kinds of gifts! Most of the time our family has a hard time buying for each other because we all already have SO much. It’s a better idea to share with others!

    I love that there are options like this available. I always like to help but sometimes you don’t know how to help. Just giving someone something as basic as soap is so meaningful.
