6 Feel Good Companies

If you’re like me, you love to shop. Clothes, jewelry, home décor, anything, really. And if you’re really like me, you like to know that your money is going to more than just some chain store that will inevitably use your money to make more chain stores. The following companies are organizations that you can spend your money at, get amazing products and still end up donating to worthwhile causes.

1. Pura Vida Bracelet Company

I am a representative for this company (I just love it so much) so if you use the code MARISSAUMBLE20, you’ll get 20% off your order!

Don’t let the name fool you- it is way more than just a bracelet company. While it started out selling bracelets that were handmade by artisans in Costa Rica, this company now sells swimsuits, beach towels, accessories and clothing too! Every bracelet that you buy turns a profit for not just the company, but also the artisan in Costa Rica that made it. They also have a charity tab on their website so that you can see just bracelets that donate to charities. Most are unisex- men can wear them too. The bracelets are also super cheap! Check it out here!

2. Toms Shoes

Most people know this company as the company that donates a pair of shoes to a child in need with every purchase of a pair. However, Toms has also partnered with Oceana to donate to save Sea Turtles as well! Check it out here!

3. Ivory Ella

Ivory Ella makes T-Shirts, other clothes and jewelry all printed with an elephant design. 10% of all profits go to Save the Elephants, which is a non-profit organization that does exactly what it says it does- works to save the elephants. Check it out here!

4. The Polar Preserve

The Polar Preserve is much like Ivory Ella. Their products come in fun colors and are printed with Polar Bears on them! A portion of the sale from every t-shirt goes directly to polar bear conservation efforts. It not only preserves the polar bears, but also the climate in which they live. Check it out here!

5. Better World Books

Every time someone purchases a book form Better World Books, a book is donated to someone in need. They even sell textbooks! They are partners with many non-profit organizations, including Books for Africa, National Center for Families Learning, Feed the Children and Room to Read. Check it out here!

6. Project 7

This is a specialty gum and mint company that gives back to the seven areas of need (hence the name Project 7). This company donates to feed the hungry, quench the thirsty, heal the sick, house the homeless, save the earth, teach them well and hope for peace. Products are available through Amazon and Amazon Prime. Check it out here!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
