1. Rescue Paws
If you’ve ever doom-scrolled past a stray dog photo and felt your heart crack a little (okay, a lot), check out Rescue Paws and their handmade bracelets. Each one helps provide 10 meals to homeless dogs, and they've already served 2,000,000 meals and counting. Your wrist will look fabulous and somewhere a very good dog is having a very good dinner.
2. Brooklinen
Brooklinen wants everyone sleeping well, not just the people who can afford their famously soft sheets. They've teamed up with Good360 to get returned product into the hands of people who need it through donation centers, and with Animal Haven to turn some of those returns into pillowy makeshift beds for shelter cats and dogs while they wait for their forever homes.
3. Pura Vida Bracelets
Support multiple charities at the same time with Pura Vida's rotating "Charity Collection," where every bracelet supports a different cause from pet rescue to rainforest protection to clean beaches. Buy a few and you'll have a built-in talking point for every cause you care about, which is way more impressive than 'I don't know, it was on sale.'
4. Williams Sonoma Spatulas
Williams Sonoma teamed up with No Kid Hungry so your next kitchen upgrade can fight childhood hunger one spatula at a time. Each silicone spatula in the collection is designed by a different celebrity, food blogger or chef, which turns your utensil drawer into a surprisingly competitive collector's item. Pick a favorite (or don't, and grab a few) and you're helping keep bellies other than yours full.
5. Bombas
Grab some necessities like socks, underwear or tees from Bombas and they’ll donate a matching second item straight to someone who's facing homelessness or housing insecurity (it’s like BOGO but better!). It's the closest thing to a guilt-free shopping spree you'll find outside of a clearance rack.
6. Gorjana Single Paw Heart Bracelet
Gorjana's dainty 18K-plated gold bracelet has a tiny paw print charm and is basically the jewelry equivalent of having your dog's photo as your phone background. Half the net sales go to A Lending Paw, a nonprofit that pairs people in need with rescued and trained service animals. It's proof that something small can do something big for someone else.
7. World Wildlife Fund
Adopting an endangered species sounds like a major life decision until you realize WWF's wildlife adoptions means a plush and a tote bag, not an actual snow leopard moving into your spare room. Your symbolic adoption goes toward conserving real wildlife and their habitats for future generations. It’s also the only adoption process that comes with a free tote and skips the home inspection entirely.
8. 4Ocean
Two surfers looked at the trash piling up on their favorite beaches and decided to do something about it, which is how 4Ocean turned bracelets made from recycled materials into one of the most effective cleanup tools around. Each bracelet buys a pound of plastic pulled straight out of the ocean, and those pounds have added up to more than 50 million since 2017.
9. The Foggy Dog
Your furry friend needs accessories too! Every bandana, collar and leash purchased from The Foggy Dog means a pound of food gets donated to rescue shelters across America. Your dog gets to look stylish on its evening walk while a shelter pup is having a banger of a dinner.
