Back to School Supplies that Give Back
I read earlier today that some kids have gone back to school already. Wow. I blinked and these long Summer days are over! It’s time to get it together and finish up all our back to school shopping. This year, I’m going to be supporting a few great companies that give back to children when I purchase their school supplies. Between these three companies and reusing some of our school supplies from last year, I think my kid will be ready to take on first grade.
1. Bixbee | With every backpack purchase, Bixbee donates a schoolbag with supplies to a kid in need. They partner directly with schools, orphanages and supporting organizations to ensure that product is received and delivered to the children they teach.
2. b4 | Their purpose is to change lives through charitable giving. b4 is committed to giving 50% of the profits from the sale for their unique wellness products to children-focused causes through The Midway Foundation. The Foundation has donated more than $1.2 million to 150 organizations since its inception.
3. Yoobi | For every Yoobi item you purchase, a Yoobi item will be donated to a classroom in need, right here in the U.S. Yoobi was born to make colorful, vibrant tools that spark learning and creativity. Find these products exclusively at Target.
