Green Friday Gift Guide: Gifts that give back to nature
For your nature-loving friends and family, why not choose a gift that gives back this year?
We’re keeping Black Friday green with our roundup of gift ideas - all hand-chosen from small businesses, fellow B Corps and social enterprises, so you can feel good about where your money goes.
Y.O.U Underwear: Organic underwear that gives back
A staple stocking filler across the country, you can’t go wrong with underwear - but what if you could make a choice that’s even better for people and planet? Y.O.U Underwear donate two pairs of pants for every one they sell, fighting period poverty for women and girls in Africa. They are made with certified Organic, PETA-approved cotton, making them kinder to nature (no nasty pesticides), they’re Fairtrade, and ethically made in India. Super comfy and stylish!
