Buying certain brands can help children in the United States and other countries lead healthier, more fulfilling lives. If you want your purchases to make the world a better place, consider buying from these four brands.

JCPenney

JCPenney does more than operate department stores across the United States. It also runs several charity programs dedicated to improving the lives of children. JCPenney Cares stands out as one of the company’s most successful endeavors. The 501(c)3 charity donates money to programs that give children healthy, safe places where they can stay engaged outside of the classroom.

Some of the partners JCPenney Cares supports include Boys & Girls Clubs of America, No Kid Hungry, and the YMCA.

You can help support JCPenney’s efforts while saving money. Start by getting coupons from Goodsearch and this Facebook page dedicated to JCPenney Goodsearch coupons.

 

TOMS

When you buy a pair of TOMS shoes, the company donates a new pair of shoes to needy children living all over the world. This program has become very popular, so you may already know about it. TOMS, however, does more than send shoes to developing countries. It also has charity programs that provide clean water, training for birth attendants, and a range of services to improve eyesight in children and adults.

In the United States, TOMS tackles the problem of bullying. When you purchase anything from TOMS High Road Backpack Collection, TOMS gives money that supports crisis counselors and school staff, so they know how to prevent bullying.

 

Warby Parker

Warby Parker takes the buy-a-pair, give-a-pair concept to a new level. Instead of simply giving glasses to children, the company trains men and women in developing countries, so they can provide eye exams to people in their communities. Warby Parker then provides these trained professionals with enough money to purchase the number of glasses they need.

Men and women who receive training can then provide low-cost eye care and glasses to their communities. It helps the professionals earn a living while giving people in developing countries an affordable way to get the glasses they need.

From Warby Parker’s perspective, this arrangement makes it possible for children to receive affordable glasses and lets adults earn reliable incomes. Instead of creating a culture of dependency, Warby Parker’s charity efforts give people a sustainable way to earn incomes and help the people around them.

 

Reebok

Childhood obesity has become a serious health problem in the United States. Reebok’s BOKS program attempts to lower obesity levels by providing before-school physical activity programs. BOKS currently works with over 1,000 schools.

Before-school exercise does more than just help children shed pounds. It also prepares their minds for a full day of learning. The program has received praise from several notable people, including First Lady Michelle Obama.

You can help Rebook fund this program by using Goodsearch coupons and visiting the Coupons for Good Rebook page.

Where you shop and what you buy can have an effect on the lives of needy children all over the world. By making knowledgeable choices, your next shopping spree could make a child’s life better.
