This Impact-Driven Gift Guide Will Help You Give for Good

Posted inSocially Responsible Design

Knowledge is power. As consumers, wielding our awareness holds weight.

In time for the gift-giving season, Brand Pollinators, a company that facilitates impactful brand collaborations, and Modern Species, an impact-driven brand design agency, have launched the Impact-Driven Gift Guide. This colorful, beautifully designed, and easy-to-navigate online guide features over 70 unique, curated products from small businesses dedicated to making a positive social and environmental impact.

It’s really exciting to see so many companies coming together to help promote more conscious gift-giving by elevating the brands and certifications that are out here driving positive change.

All products are marked with one or more certifications demonstrating their value and verifying the integrity of their claims. The guide also includes a section describing how each certification makes an impact.

Certifications include:

  • 1% for the Planet
  • B Corp
  • Climate Neutral
  • Fair Trade
  • Naturally Network (Minority Owned Fellowship)
  • Regenerative Organic
  • Plastic Neutral
  • Upcycled
  • Women-Owned

Gift-giving is a way to show appreciation for friends and family, but it’s also an opportunity to support the systems and communities behind the products.

We love this guide because it’s an exercise in consumer literacy, but it’s also fun and easy-to-use. Find eight unique gift ideas in each of the categories, including “foodies,” “makers,” and “community connections.” You’ll come away feeling more knowledgeable about your choices and more purposeful and value-oriented in your purchase power.
