I totally am obsessed with CAUSEBOX. My summer box arrived yesterday and I was SO excited to tear it open and see what was inside! I’m already enjoying it!
Like many other subscription boxes out there, CAUSEBOX arrives on your doorstep once a quarter full of cool products. But what makes this subscription different? CAUSEBOX contains a seasonal selection of socially conscious products for women. I love supporting products that give back, but, honestly, good ones are hard to find! CAUSEBOX has done the work for me. They find the most amazing brands that are making products that:
- give back generously to underprivileged communities,
- help provide jobs and sustainable income in underdeveloped areas, of the world,
- raise awareness for different charitable initiatives or
- empower people, help people, or otherwise make the world a better place and are made ethically.
What’s in the summer box?
This Spring box was amazing – I was literally ooh-ing and ahh-ing as I opened it! The Spring 2015 box included:
Musana Bumba Necklace: This necklace is totally gorgeous – and has a great message! Musana is a nonprofit that aims to break the cycle of poverty in Uganda by providing stable employment and education for women. Musana means ‘sunlight’ in the local language of Luganda, and the artisans who crafted this necklace are truly a light within their communities!
KeepCup Re-usable Coffee Cup: The KeepCup is made from non-toxic BPA and BPS-free polypropylene and features a splash proof seal — it is the perfect choice for coffee consumption on the go and it helps save the planet from paper and plastic waste. I love it and want to buy another one already.
Parker Clay Upcycled Wrap Bracelet: This was my absolute favorite this month! This bracelet was handmade out of Ethiopian leather and melted down bullets found in the Ethiopian countryside — what was once intended for harm has been transformed into something of hope and beauty. My niece and nephew are both from Ethiopian, so this piece will be close to my heart!
Parker Clay Headband: This headband is handcrafted by a small team of artisans in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia and is a must-have summer accessory. Super chic and so fun! My daughter already stole this… maybe I’ll get to try it out sometime 🙂
Love for Humanity Face Cream: Love this stuff! It’s organic, vegan, cruelty free, and made in the USA. Plus, for every product that LFH sells, they provide a meal for the malnourished!
Living on One DVD: Follow along as four university students spend a Summer in rural Guatemalan living on $1/day to better understand the realities of poverty. Their videos about the experience went viral on YouTube and ultimately became this amazing, award-winning film. We can’t wait to watch this with our kids – what a great lesson for them!
Everly Drink Mixes: Everly has no additives, preservatives, or fake coloring — its a great way to give you better tasting water while heloing kids in need. When you support Everly, they provide life-saving oral rehydration salts to treat sick children!
Loving everything!
Every box has at least $150 of retail value, and sells for $49.95/quarter.
