When it come to gifting this holiday season, give the gift that impacts communities across the globe. Fair trade gifts are not only fun to give, but they make a difference for people who are less fortunate. I’m a huge fan of Noonday Collection because they combine 4 of the things I’m passionate about…empowering women to become the best version of themselves, making an impact in communities without the economic advantages we have in the US, orphan care and of course, fashion! When you shop from this list, you can be assured you’re making a difference!
