Holiday gifts that give back to victims of crime!

So excited reading my People Stylewatch and read about brands that donate up to 100% of the proceeds to worthy causes including assisting victims of crime. For those interested, the two brands that help crime victims are OPI Nail Lacquer and Beauty.com+Erickson Beamon Gems for GEMS. OPI sponsors the Sandy Hook Promise- advocates for gun-violence solutions and aids Sandy Hook Elementary School families who lost loved ones. Purchase Sandy Hook Green nail color and all proceeds go to help the families.

OPI's Limited-Edition Sandy Hook Green Nail Polish

In addition, go to Beauty.com and buy a gem butterfly crystal hair clip. All proceeds benefit Girls Educational and Mentoring Services which educates and empowers victims of human trafficking in the U.S.
Wow, literally give the gift that keeps on giving! Might buy this for my nieces!
