#GivingTuesday, Tuesday,November 29, is a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media and collaboration. It kicks off the giving season, when many focus on their holiday and end-of-year giving.This Holiday shopping season choose gifts that “give” to more than just the lucky people on your list.

Need a few ideas? Shop smart with these unique gifts from Meredith M and Webster’s Community Pharmacy in Altadena.

Chavez for Charity offers a selection of handmade bracelets that benefit 20+ charities. Each of the ten colors in their beaded bracelet collection represents a different cause. With every sale, Chavez for Charity donates 25% of profits to a corresponding charity. For example, choose a bright blue bracelet and 25% of profits are donated to Water.org and choose a yellow one and 25% of the profits are donated to Alex’s Lemonade Stand. Select a charity that’s close to your gift recipient’s heart and know that you’re doing good while picking out the perfect present!

Choose from a selection of men’s grooming products by Duke Cannon Supply Co. at Webster’s Community Pharmacy. These “Made in the USA” products are manufactured in the same plant that was the primary supplier of soaps for the US Military for more than 20 years. Fast forward 60 years – Duke Cannon Supply Co. first launched its line of soaps, shave cream, lip balm and bath gels for the consumer market. They are serious about their commitment to giving back to the men and women serving the country. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of their products support Veterans causes including Honor Flight Program and Military Working Dog Team Support Association. We think that this line of personal care products is perfect for all the boys, tweens and men on your gift list.

Want to give back to a local charity? Support Trained Dogs for Adoption, an Altadena based charity by purchasing pair of their holiday ornament earrings at Meredith M. Choose from holiday lights, tree ornaments and other fun shapes. All the proceeds from these festive earrings will help support this organization and connect dogs with their forever homes.
