Gift Guide: World Vision Gift Catalog #GiftCatalog (#Win)

Disclaimer: I received a World Vision item to facilitate this post. All opinions are my own.

World Vision is a gift giving alternative that can make you feel good about gift giving purchases this Christmas, this catalog has beautiful artisanal goods from Africa, India, and Southeast Asia to offer, which make wonderful presents and stocking stuffers. It also offers the ability to make life changing donations for so many good things, like clean water, and farm animals to help people in need all over the world.

One of many donations to catch my eye, is called: Career Training for Girls and Women a small donation can empower women by investing in their skills training, and business education. This donation can offer opportunities in weaving, jewelry-making, baking, dairy farming, and more, creating a chance for mothers and daughters to take their future into their own hands. $25-$125
