Goodshop Gift Giving Gives Back to Cause of Your Choice

I absolutely love this time of year.  I am moved by the holiday spirit (giving). Hmm, maybe this is the reason I love Goodshop so much! Something about shopping through my favorite brands, while simultaneously giving back to important causes…well, it doesn’t get any better than that!

This holiday season, Goodshop has partnered with 4, 000 top retailers, like Macy’s, Amazon, Toys-R-Us, Target – so that your family and friend’s shopping list not only makes them happy, it will make a difference to a cause that you’re passionate about as well! And there’s 110,000 causes available for you to choose from.

This includes every purchase on EVERY ITEM. Shopping for a cause is the best and should be the only way to shop…period! In fact, any purchase made via Mind Body Soul’U'tions, Elite Socialistas and Goddess Getaways, including related social media sites, I donate 20% of all proceeds to charity. That t-shirt your daughter loves so much, can supply water to a village or that vase aunty wants, can help to vaccinate children…those chic bangles can feed a family for a week…get my point?

“By simply choosing from any of our 110,000 non-profit and school partners, cause supporters can earn much needed donations with all their Holiday purchases and get money saving coupons too, all at no extra cost to them.”

Here is a chic infograph and study stats, which can help you with the hassle of gift shopping. Me personally, I’m an online shopping evangelist, so this time of year most often find me holiday shopping, digitally…no lines, no crowds, noise…I even have a chic ritual. Did I mention the free shipping and amazing online only exclusive discounts and promos? Its near impossible for me to not to take advantage of online shopping, but to each their own, right?
