Give with Meaning this Father's Day!

Buying for guys can be really hard! Can I get an AMEN?

One of the posts from Mitchael Journey that gets hits pretty much every day from Pinterest is my gift list of items for guys that give back to those in need! Since posting, I've shared several others in the series Gifts that Give Back, and it's now come full circle -- just in time for Father's Day!

Today I'll be sharing 10 unique fair-trade shops and 30 gifts that have a deeper value for the dudes in your life!
"Every product we make is hand-signed by the person who made it. Women and their families are being empowered through the products made at Krochet Kids. Intl and the programs we provide."

2 || Sak Saum - get to know them + shop!
"This is how the battle against human trafficking will be won – one person, one family, one community at a time."

3 || Goodness Cards - get to know themshop!
"For every purchase of our Goodness Card, nonprofits get extra love and financial support while customers and supporters get empowered to bring change to their society."



4 || Open Door Traders get to know them + shop!
" The Haitians taught me so much about the impact of a small gift and share an infectious amount of hope by their smiles, and graciousness even through the hardest conditions. We as Open Door Traders wanted to be a tiny part of that hope with simple gifts of a wooden doll or automobile."


5 || Yellow Leaf Hammocks - get to know them + shop!
"Our artisan weavers and their families were previously trapped in extreme poverty and debt slavery. Now they are empowered to earn a stable, healthy income through dignified work (we call this a "prosperity wage"). This is the basis for a brighter future, built on a hand up, not a handout."

6 || Haiti Made - get to know them + shop!
"Haiti is a country that has been defined by extreme poverty, joblessness and entitlement. 
It is our mission to unite around quality products, economic sustainability, & dignified jobs to fight against Haiti's orphan and child slavery crisis."



7 || Live Worldly - get to know them + shop!
"We invite you to be a part of something bigger, to live worldly."

8 || TOMSget to know them + shop
"With every product you purchase, TOMS will help a person in need. One for One. Through your purchases, TOMS helps provide shoes, sight, water, safe birth and
bullying prevention services to people in need."

9 || BADALA - get to know them + shop!
"In our world today we have enough money to eradicate global poverty, but we need to prioritize our resources. Join hands with me as we take a risk for the greatest reward and let's watch as lives are changed forever."
10 || Ten Thousand Villages - get to know them + shop!
"One day all artisans in the developing countries will earn a fair wage, be treated with dignity and respect and be able to live a life of quality."

{Frugal} 21 MORE Gifts that Give Back: For Kids

I'm sure everyone's kids are counting down the days until Christmas (at least those old enough to count!) -- their lists may include gifts that you, too are excited about giving -- while others ... not so much. Some of you may be stumped as to what to give those special littles in your life.

Well, this post is a solution for you! Here are 21 Gift Ideas, that I've found across the internet, geared toward kids and babies. The best thing about them is that the gifts serve a greater good -- these companies source their items ethically, give back to others and some are even handmade by artisans who are in need. There is so much more behind each purchase :) Scroll through and be sure to check out the business "about" pages which I have linked at the very bottom of the post!

Have a wonderful Christmas season and New Year!
