Shops That have meaningful missions

I believe in supporting businesses and creators with a heart. Explore this list of shops and products that make a positive impact on the world, from donating proceeds to supporting creators with special abilities. This section is where you'll find unique gifts that give back and spread joy.

Candidly Kind

Grace Key started candidly kind to spread light love and acceptance through her original art and life. Grace creates all the artwork and designs for all products.

Grace has used writing, drawing and painting throughout her life to express herself. When Grace had a desire to start her own fashion line, using her art and “catchphrases” was a perfect fit for the designs!

Plus, you shop, Grace gives! Grace donates a portion of her profits and gives hundreds of items to charity!

The Spotlight Project

The Spotlight Project specializes in handcrafted bracelets… with an amazing mission.

The unemployment rate for adults with disabilities is 80%, and many of the jobs available do not offer a creative platform, promote growth, or give the individual a voice to speak. This led to the creation of The Spotlight Project. “We’re inspired to create a stage for our members to display their creative talents to the world. We wish to give them the spotlight, give them a voice, and show society the greatness they can achieve. Each individual we employ is at the forefront of our brand. Every member of our team has an intellectual or developmental disability, and a unique story to tell.”

Alivia

Alivia aims to give purpose and voice to the previously unheard, showcasing the many talents and abilities of people with disabilities — and pushing the fashion industry further towards inclusivity. Every Alivia piece begins with artwork created by an individual with a developmental disability while participating in art therapy. Each artist is paid for the use of their artwork and 10% of every purchase is donated to their associated nonprofit art therapy program.

Bitty & Beau’s Coffee

As advocates for the value, acceptance, and inclusion of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, the Wrights have dedicated their lives to making the world a better place for their children and others living with disabilities. Bitty & Beau’s Coffee creates a path for people with disabilities to become more valued, accepted and included in every community.

Grounds & Hounds Coffee Co.®

Grounds & Hounds Coffee Co.® believes that great coffee can fuel a greater purpose. Through the sale of organic and eco-friendly specialty coffees, they support rescue initiatives and organizations providing a second chance for pups in need of a helping hand. 20% of all profits are deployed to animal rescue organizations providing safe havens for pups between homes.

Downs & Towns

Houston Vandergriff is a photographer who has traveled far and wide and hopes his photographs will inspire others to live life to the fullest and with compassion. Houston has a simple vision with his photography: Make the world a better place.

Because of the low muscle tone from Down syndrome, his speech is sometimes difficult to understand. Through his photography, he is able to share his view of the world -- without actually saying a word. Houston inspires others, both inside and outside of the disability community. He is a strong self-advocate who uses the universal language of the arts to push for inclusion.

You Are Enough: A Book About Inclusion

A beautiful and inclusive picture book all about celebrating being yourself from Down syndrome advocate and viral sensation Sofia Sanchez!

This inclusive and empowering picture book from Sofia Sanchez, an 11-year-old model and actress with Down syndrome, reminds readers how important it is to embrace your differences, be confident, and be proud of who you are. Sofia is unique, but her message is universal: We all belong. So each spread features beautiful, full-color illustrations of a full cast of kid characters with all kinds of backgrounds, experiences, and abilities.
