In the season of giving, the most meaningful gifts by far are those that give back, making an impact that reaches far beyond just the gift-giver and receiver. We have put together a list of our favorites in Charitable Gifts to give this season. From making a donation in honor of a loved one, to purchasing gorgeous jewelry with proceeds that go to the charity of your choosing, giving gifts that give back captures the true meaning of Christmas and helps our community. What could be better?
