Taaluma Totes
Taaluma Totes takes wool and cotton from all around the world and brings it back to the U.S. where disabled adults are employed to craft each tote. The purchase of each tote then goes back into the country where the fabric is from as a micro-loan to farmers and small business owners there. Whenever they can, they pay the loan back and the repayment funds the purchase of more fabrics, creating an economic flow in that country and creating a wonderful product along the way!

Gandy’s Flip Flops
Two brothers from the UK create this firm when their family of six was travelling in Sri Lanka and their family was killed by a tsunami. Being made orphans at the age of 15 and 17, they were inspired to help other parent-less children around the world, especially those affected by tsunamis and the devastating effects that are left behind. Enter Gandy’s Flip Flops. They’ve already managed to build orphanages in India and Sri Lanka!
Chakra Bracelets
Did you know that over 6 million people in the UK alone live with anxiety? That’s a staggering amount of people! Anxiety is a mental illness that causes you to feel scared, alone, experience heart palpitations, cold sweats, and many more symptoms. Anxiety can completely take over a person’s life if not treated properly, and many people choose to wear Chakra bracelets in support of those who suffer, or to show that they are fighting the disease.
