Early Christmas shopping while supporting a good cause


Not only is White Ribbon Day fast looming, but right around the corner is Christmas! If you are looking for a way to support the White Ribbon Campaign this year, and you’re stuck for ideas, here we profile some businesses that can help get the Christmas present list out of the way, and will also donate a percentage of proceeds to White Ribbon. Importantly, these companies support White Ribbon’s vision, that all women live in safety free from violence and abuse.

For Him
Snags Online is a new online shopping experience providing products for men while giving to 5% to selected charities.  For men who love to cook, maybe a few bottles of Yellingbo Gold, straight from the Yarra Valley.  With $2 from every bottle of Yellingbo Gold going to White Ribbon, it’s sure to taste even better!   While exercising off the Christmas turkey, consider gearing up with an undershirt from EQUMEN, a compression shirt specifically designed to provide therapeutic benefits. The added benefit is $5 from each Black Undershirt and Long Trunk sold between 20 - 27 November goes to White Ribbon.

For Her
Suzanne Grae are long-term partners of White Ribbon.  Throughout November profits from selected Suzanne Grae t-shirts going to White Ribbon.  A White Fashion week is also held every year from 19-25 November to promote the Campaign, with $1 from the sale of all White Fashion week items donated to White Ribbon by Suzanne Grae.  Fresh Fragrances and Cosmetics is also generously supporting White Ribbon during the campaign period, donating $5 per order.  Jewellery for a Cause carry “cause related” jewellery, and has launched new necklaces and bracelets to support White Ribbon in November.

For everyone!
We are not sure these delicious cupcakes will last until Christmas, however, if you head to Puckles Family Bakehouse you’ll not only get your sugar fix, but support White Ribbon with 25% of proceeds from the sale of White Ribbon cupcakes going directly to the Foundation.  GoFundraise  is a group buying site with a difference, a percentage of the commission from every order goes to your selected charity.  Last but not least, if you are in the market for a new car, AHG dealerships in Victoria and New South Wales are donating some of the profit from every car sold on 17 and 18 November to White Ribbon.  When any excuse will do!

And don’t forget the postage…
If you need to ship to your loved ones, Platinum Freight donate a minimum of 5% from every invoice to White Ribbon all year round.  Not only will your items arrive safely, but you’ll be supporting the safety of Australian women.  What a Merry Christmas indeed!
