shop with purpose.

i love buying beautiful and fun gifts that make a difference.  so, i
thought i'd round up a few to share with you. many of these are great gifts
for our loved ones as well as teachers, mail carriers, bus drivers,
dinner hostesses and pastors.  i'll share first and then if you have a
product that you are selling for an adoption or non-profit, please
feel free to link it in the comments.  people can browse things
there and maybe i'll feature it in a future post!

happy shopping [with purpose]!

Sole Hope offers HOPE, healthier lives & freedom from
foot-related diseases through education, jobs and medical relief.
I've seen the devastation that jiggers in feet can have on people's
lives in Uganda and love the work that Sole Hope is doing there.

This 'Hope Is My Anchor' shirt is a campaign to raise funds for a
new sewing machine which will employ more Ugandan
seamstresses to sew shoes to protect these people's precious
feet from jiggers and disease.
You can purchase the [cute, comfy!] shirt HERE!

My friend is selling her all natural body products to
raise funds for the adoption of their son [that she met while
on a trip with me! it was an honor to be there & a blessing to
watch God work to get him home.]  they are in the home stretch
of fundraising and are currently trying to sell 100 of these awesome
body butters!  we love them--super moisturizing and nourishing for
the skin and she has some wonderful scents!
check them out HERE!

I think these cuffs are so fun and meaningful since you can
personalize them.  [I think I'm going to get 'let love grow' on one!]
All profits go toward this family's adoption!
Embrace Designs personalized cuffs are found HERE!

These She Has Hope friendship bracelets are so cute that when my friend, Jen,
linked to them, I had to get one for a certain 9 year old's upcoming birthday.
These aren't just any friendship bracelets though. They are made by girls,
mostly teenagers, who have been rescued and are being rehabilitated
from a life of forced prostitution in Indian brothels.
You can find these bracelets HERE!

A Child's Voice Ugandan baskets.  These baskets are made by women in Uganda
and are truly fair trade and help empower them.  This non-profit organization
advocates for and empowers vulnerable children and families.
Check out these gorgeous baskets HERE!

 These beautiful pottery necklaces are each one of a kind
and include a scripture reference on the back.  All proceeds
go toward their adoption. More information HERE!
