International Women’s Day is just around the corner. The global holiday is celebrated annually on March 8. IWD is dedicated to acknowledging the cultural, economic, and political achievements of women. It’s also a day where we celebrate and support the women who inspire us the most.
The women who inspire you may be artists, authors, entrepreneurs, or individuals who hold public office. They also might be women who are in your life. Whoever they are, near or far, there’s no doubt they’ve done something that made a difference in your life or someone else’s life.
There are many ways you can celebrate IWD, whether it be writing letters, supporting your favorite female artists, or showing love to local, female-owned businesses. Sometimes, it can be difficult to find the right words to express your admiration and appreciation for the people you care about. I know that I sometimes struggle to articulate my appreciation to the people who inspire and empower me as a young woman. That’s why I like to give gifts!
Any gift you decide to buy for a special woman in your life on International Women’s Day doesn’t have to be necessarily expensive for it to be special. It’s the thought that counts. I would start off by brainstorming things that the person may need or has wanted for so long. Here are 12 things you can buy for the special women in your life.
