It is just under a month until Christmas and if you are still looking for the perfect gift for your family and friends, why not make a real difference this year by purchasing gifts and making a difference in the lives of less-fortunate people and animals. The following are websites with shops selling gifts that benefit more than just the receiver.

1.Dignity Centre in Nicosia (Refumade Sewing Cooperative)
The Dignity Centre in Nicosia is a community space where all are welcome, offering a sewing room, classroom, games room, kitchen, laundry room, and child-friendly space. All items are handmade here by refugees, and each item sold means money for the creator. This gives refugees dignity and a way to make a living, feel wanted, and useful. The shop on the website also offers a cookery book with refugee’s own recipes and stories from back home.

2.Amnesty International online shop
The official Amnesty International USA store sells gifts that support indigenous communities worldwide and helps Amnesty continue their life-saving work. Items in the shop are fairly traded and help raise awareness for human rights in this increasingly terrible world. Choose from a range of high-quality t-shirts, bags, hoodies, hats and bandanas, jewelry, bags, wallets and journals for a gift that keeps on giving. If you live elsewhere in the world, search for your local Amnesty online shop.

3.The Animal Rescue site
The Humane Society of the United States operates the Animal Rescue Site, which gives 20 percent of the sale price of items to benefit the HSUS animal protection programs. Choose from a range of t-shirts, hoodies, jewelry, mugs, and other great gifts to benefit rescued animals and help the organization to continue helping animals.

4.eBay for Charity
The Humane Society of the United States is also involved in eBay for Charity, where a great range of beautiful gifts and decor items is waiting to be purchased. This helps HSUS fight for the protection of all animals more effectively, as they have since 1954. The organization rescues and cares for tens of thousands of animals every year, but their mission is to stop cruelty before it even starts. Help them in their cause, while making a family member smile this Christmas.

5.MUTTS official online store
The MUTTS comic strip by Patrick McDonnell has been around for a long time. Now the official MUTTS online store sells a myriad of great MUTT related gifts for your loved ones while giving five percent of every purchase to the Humane Society of the United States and their Animal Rescue Team. HSUS is the largest animal protection organization in the USA and works to protect animals worldwide from cruelties, including puppy mills, wildlife trade, animal fighting, and more.
