Giving Back is Always in Style

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Adelphi chapter.

Nothing feels better than giving back, whether it’s donating to a charity, or volunteering. If you buy from these companies, you will not only be helping out, but you get great quality items in return! 

 

“Good Clothes for a Good Cause”

Ivory Ella is a clothing store dedicated to ending the poaching of elephants, by donating 10% of their profits to savetheelephants.org. They have many items from clothes to accessories such as phone cases. All of their items have a cute little elephant on them, and for any animal lover, this brand is a must.

Pura Vida Bracelets 

Pura Vida is a company that sells handmade one of a kind bracelets and each type of bracelet helps out a different charity. To name a few of the causes that are helped, there are, Animal Awareness, Women’s Causes, Cancer Awareness, Environmental Awareness, and many more. They’re cute and colorful bracelets that can add pops of color to any outfit!

“Heros Don’t Look Like They Used To” 

TOMS shoes are not only comfortable and cute, they give a lot back. Their motto is “One For One,” because for every pair you buy, one pair is given to someone in an underprivileged country. I’d say that alone is a great reason to buy a pair!

Charity By Design 

Charity By Design is Alex and Ani’s line of jewelry whose profits are donated to whatever cause is on the bracelet. Not only are these bracelets beautiful, they help give back to the community.

“Say Hello to the Hope Market” 

 

This adorable brand sells headbands and for every one purchased, one goes to a child with caner, in hopes to lift her spirits. Also, one dollar for every headband is donated to St. Baldricks Foundation.
