Making this one of your holiday gifts will make double the impact. Georgette's Grounds & Gifts is a retail store in Ohio that sells only earth friendly, fair trade goods. (It's a fair trade coffee lover's dream!) 100% of their proceeds go to help people with disabilities. In fact, 40-50% of each product sold goes directly to support their non-profit agency, Sunshine Inc. of Northwest Ohio, which helps those with disabilities find jobs and opportunities.

This Pamper Me Gift Set contains skin care products from The Enterprising Kitchen, which is a non-profit organization in Chicago. The products include: shower gels, scented vegetable oil soaps and a soap dish, organic tea, a soy candle and refreshing jute exfoliater/body massager.

The Enterprising Kitchen gives lower-income women who are currently unemployed or underemployed an opportunity to prepare for their future with workforce preparation skills, high school equivalency preparation, individualized career planning and financial planning, just to name a bit of what they do. The goal is to get these ladies prepared and placed in a regular paying job within 6-12 months.

This set, along with all of Georgette's gift sets are packaged and shipped by workers with developmental disabilities employed by Georgette's Grounds & Gifts. (buy direct)
