We’re getting down to the wire on Mother’s Day gifts, and if you’re looking for last minute inspiration, we always love gifts that give back. When you buy a beautiful, artisan gift from Given Goods this Mother’s Day, like the gorgeous Shaya necklace at top, they’ll donate a birthing kit to a mother in a region without access to proper medical care. This could literally save the life of a mother this Mother’s Day, and that’s a pretty amazing gift to give.

But what’s I love about this company is not just the giving back that they do; their product selection is gorgeous and any of their items would make a perfect gift for mom (or just-because gift for yourself) any time.  In fact, you might recognize some of these small companies which have been featured here before.

Lotus Nesting Bowl Set by Catherine’s Table, $225

Emerald Studs by Far and Wide Collective, $189,

White Bathrobe by Kara Weaves, $130

iPhone 5/5S Case by Red Dirt, $37

Bath Salts by Hand-in-Hand, $26

 Pyramid Portfolio Tote by Rising Tide Fair Trade, $118

Time to get shopping! Otherwise you’ll end up with a nice card and an IOU inside. Not that any of these lovely gifts aren’t worth waiting for.

With your purchase from Given Goods this week, they’ll donate a birthing kit to a mother in need. And be sure to visit our 2014 Mother’s Day gift guide for more ideas for gifts that give back.
