Summary

Looking for holiday gifts you’ll feel good about giving or receiving? These healthy, ethical, and sustainable gifts are functional, practical, and inspired. You’ll find causes to support, health and beauty items, kitchen enhancements, educational entertainment, and more for the people and the planet you love.

It’s that special time of year when we celebrate major holidays with family and friends. Often, gift-giving is a part of the holiday tradition. Giving and receiving gifts can add to the magic of human connection — especially when gifts are an expression of your love and values.

But in an age of rampant consumerism, I think it’s worthwhile to take a step back and reconnect with the true meaning of our holidays — our “holy days” — before pulling out our credit cards and buying mass-produced stuff for the people we love.

While different religious traditions observe different festivals and tell different stories, there are always underlying themes of togetherness, compassion, unity, and love.

So before buying the latest and greatest thing, let’s honor the spirit of the holiday season by gifting to enhance the lives and happiness of those around us.

Try giving a gift that is uniquely yours: a poem, a meaningful story, a massage. If you have a skill, can you deploy it on behalf of the recipient? Fix their dripping kitchen faucet? Mend their wobbly chair? Help them declutter their garage?

Or what about volunteering or donating money to an organization that embodies the person’s values and longings for the world?

Purchased gifts don’t have to be physical things, either. What about gifting experiences, like a membership to an online health community or offering to take them on a hike to your favorite spot in nature?

If you buy physical gifts, choose ones that support connection or help the recipient live a healthier and more enjoyable life. A big part of successful gifting is thinking about the person you’re giving the gift to. What do they love? What would they find fun? And what forms of social connection do they enjoy?

Another strategy for choosing great gifts is finding things that make it easier for people to enhance their health and, if possible, make the world healthier. High-quality kitchenware, well-made air and water filters, fair-trade foods, and sustainable home goods can all fall into this category.

Sometimes, the best gift is contributing to a cause you or a loved one believes in. Consider donating a gift on behalf of a loved one this holiday season.

These are some of Food Revolution Network’s favorite charities and nonprofits.

1. Food Revolution Alliance

Newly founded by FRN’s John and Ocean Robbins, the Food Revolution Alliance (FRA) carries on FRN’s mission in a charitable context. While FRN is a B-corp with a million-member network working to build a healthier world through food, it cannot accept tax-deductible donations. FRA, however, is a nonprofit focused on creating systemic change in food systems through education, public awareness, policy advocacy, and coalition-building. FRA seeks to increase access to nutritious foods in low-income and traditionally marginalized communities, integrate food-as-medicine into healthcare, and promote plant-based eating and higher nutritional standards in schools.

As of this writing, it’s just getting started. While we apply for charitable status, the nonprofit YES! functions as a fiscal sponsor. Early donations can make a huge impact as we seed this endeavor. Donate here. 

2. Wholesome Wave

Wholesome Wave is a nonprofit working to end not just food insecurity but nutrition insecurity across the US. They believe access to healthy food should be a right, not a privilege. Some of their programs include working on a produce prescription program with health care providers, closing the gap between those who need food assistance and those who can get it through government programs, and doubling SNAP benefits when food stamps are used on fruits and vegetables. Every dollar provides 10 servings of fresh fruits and vegetables for those in need.

3. Charity: Water

Our bodies are made of mostly water — somewhere around 60%. And we all need water to survive. Unfortunately, millions of people worldwide don’t have access to this basic human right. Charity: Water funds water programs in 27 countries around the globe. And they work to provide clean water in rural and poverty-stricken communities. If you donate for yourself or in the name of a friend or family member, you can rest assured it will bring water to people in need.

4. Soul Fire Farm

Soul Fire Farm is a community farm in Petersburg, NY, run by Leah Penniman, co-director and farm manager. Using afro-indigenous farming practices, Soul Fire Farm seeks to regenerate land for community use to end food apartheid and uproot racism in the food system.

Through food sovereignty programs and workshops, Soul Fire Farm brings healing and agricultural skills back to Black and brown folks so that they can reclaim their collective right to connect with the earth and have agency within the food system. Check out the Soul Fire Farm Community FAQ to learn about their past and future projects and where your funds may be applied.

5. Trees for the Future

Trees are essential to life. They provide oxygen, store carbon, and revitalize the soil. Trees for the Future has planted over 145 million trees in dozens of countries. As a result, they’ve improved thousands of lives, helping families transition from unsustainable farming techniques to more sustainable practices. Every donation goes toward planting a valuable tree — often a fruit or nut tree — in a low-income community. Help end hunger and poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa and keep our world full of life-giving trees with this sustainable giving idea.

6. Educated Choices Program

The Educated Choices Program (ECP) educates students of all ages about the impact of nutrition and their food choices on health, animals, and the environment. Their programs include interactive presentations on topics like “Healthful Eating” and “Modern Animal Agriculture.” Students are challenged to address these issues and think critically about them, discussing their importance in an academic setting. ECP has touched the lives of hundreds of thousands of students. Donations support their vital programs in schools, allowing educators to prepare the future leaders of tomorrow.

7. Environmental Working Group

The folks at Environmental Working Group work to educate consumers on the dangers of toxic chemicals and pesticides in the food supply and drinking water. They also maintain a cosmetics database, which tracks the ingredient safety of personal care products. Their reports, guides, campaigns, apps, and product verifications are an invaluable resource for keeping your family safe and healthy.

8. The Ron Finley Project

Known as the “gangsta gardener,” Ron Finley works to bring community gardening and regeneration to urban spaces. The Ron Finley Project currently operates a community garden in a South Central LA neighborhood that serves as a gathering place for horticultural and nutritional education. For a limited time, you can order your very own Gangsta Gardener Kit to free yourself or others from food insecurity. You can also support the garden and Ron’s vision with a donation here.

9. Farm Sanctuary

Factory farms contribute to the destruction of our environment through greenhouse gases. Industrialized agriculture causes food contamination, recalls, antibiotic resistance, and animal cruelty. Many animals raised on factory farms never see a blade of grass. However, Farm Sanctuary educates people on the plight of farm animals and the hazards of factory farming. They also rescue animals from cruelty and impending slaughter and give them the opportunity to live happy, healthy, and free lives.

Through Farm Sanctuary’s animal sponsorship programs, you can adopt a farm animal with a donation, which includes an adoption certificate, photo of your animal, sticker, meet and greet at one of the sanctuaries (in New York or Los Angeles), and a discount off of Farm Sanctuary merchandise.

10. Moving Medicine Forward

Moving Medicine Forward, founded by Dr. Michael Klaper, is revolutionizing medical education by integrating plant-based nutrition and lifestyle medicine into medical school curriculums. With a mission to equip future physicians with the knowledge to prevent and reverse chronic diseases through diet and lifestyle, this initiative seeks to transform healthcare at its roots. Dr. Klaper’s work addresses a critical gap in traditional medical training by emphasizing the profound impact of food choices on health. By supporting Moving Medicine Forward, you’ll help inspire the next generation of doctors to embrace plant-based healing, improve patient outcomes, and create a healthier future for all. Donate here to make a lasting impact on healthcare.

A cooking enthusiast might enjoy one of these healthy, handpicked kitchen tools — perfect for meal prep or preparing delicious food and beverages at home.

1. Black Walnut Cutting Board by Mevell

Whether you’re chopping vegetables or tofu, every kitchen needs a good cutting board. And I’m not talking about one of those cheap plastic boards you can buy in three-packs from Walmart. If you’ve ever tried preparing a salad on a plastic slab with the footprint of an iPad mini, you know that most of it will roll off the board and onto the counter or, worse, the floor. With a high-quality, right-sized cutting board, you can look those carrot rounds in the eye and confidently proclaim, “You’re not getting away this time!”

Surprise the chef in your life with a long-lasting cutting board that won’t damage knives.

This beautiful walnut-wood cutting board from Mevell is reasonably priced. The wood is sustainably grown in the US, handcrafted in Canada, and approved by the National Sanitation Foundation for use in commercial kitchens. Best of all, Mevell plants a tree for every cutting board it sells.

2. ZWILLING Gourmet 8-inch Chef’s Knife

This Zwilling Chef’s Knife is a versatile, high-quality kitchen tool designed for home chefs and professionals. Made in Germany from special high-carbon stainless steel, this lightweight knife features an ice-hardened blade that stays sharper longer. Its fine edge makes it perfect for tasks like chopping, slicing, and mincing, while the triple-riveted handle ensures balance and comfort during use. With a durable design and exceptional cutting performance, this knife is an essential kitchen workhorse.

3. Bayco Glass Food Storage Containers with Lids, [24 Piece] 

This 24-piece food storage set includes round, square, and rectangular glass containers with locking plastic lids. The containers are different sizes, from one and a half cups to four and a half cups. The non-porous glass and BPA-free lids ensure your thoughtful gift is safe and non-toxic. This is a great starter set for a couple or small family.

4. Stainless Steel Airtight Watertight Food Storage Containers from Life Without Plastic 

These high-quality, food-grade stainless steel containers are lightweight, durable, watertight, and versatile. Multiple sizes and shapes are available to accommodate all kinds of leftovers and ready-to-go meals. The non-removable silicone seals on the lids and three stainless steel latches make each container leak-proof and airtight. No more accidentally wearing lunch when your car has to make that hard right turn during the morning rush hour! They’re also perfect for school lunches or picnics. The containers should last a long time and are dishwasher safe. The lids are best left out of the dishwasher, as high heat can degrade the silicone seal.

4. Stainless Steel Straws

Plastic straw waste is a huge strain on the environment. And many countries and companies have issued plastic straw bans to combat the problem. Some places have replaced plastic with disposable paper straws, but they’re not a long-term solution. Instead, consider investing in stainless steel straws, like this set from Amazon. You’ll get 12 extra-long drinking straws: three each of bent and straight varieties for both 20-ounce and 30-ounce tumblers. The set also includes cleaning brushes and a carrying bag — another great stocking stuffer idea for the sustainability-conscious people in your life.

5. Cuisinart 12-Piece Cookware Set, MultiClad Pro Triple Ply, Silver, MCP-12N

This Cuisinart cookware set is one of many fine stainless steel pot and pan sets. All the pots and pans are multiclad with stainless steel interiors and exteriors (for toughness and safety) and an aluminum core for enhanced heat conductivity. This cookware works on induction, gas, and electric stoves and is dishwasher-safe.

3. Vitamix E310 Blender

Although it’s on the pricier side, the Vitamix’s high quality makes it a valuable and highly sought-after gift. Most models come with a 48- or 64-ounce container made with Tritan, a plastic that doesn’t contain BPA. They also make a stainless steel container (that costs extra). The Vitamix can quickly and easily make a frozen dessert or a morning smoothie — and it can grind up seeds and blend fruits and vegetables with its stainless steel blades. We picked the E310 because it’s on the lower end of their price range, but the 5-Speed Immersion Blender would make another great gift for less than half the cost.

4. AquaTru

There is no safe level of lead in drinking water, yet many municipal systems are still contaminated with this heavy metal. And that’s just one contaminant. With our water supply under siege by industrial and agricultural pollution, a high-quality water filter is an important resource in almost every kitchen.

AquaTru is a reverse osmosis unit that sits on the countertop and includes carbon filter technology. It delivers high-quality water and flavor. The system removes fluoride, chromium-6, and many other contaminants from tap water. Give your loved ones the gift of truly clean water, and get it now (with the link above) for a special $100 discount.

5. Almond Cow

There are so many milk alternatives on the market these days.

But with the Almond Cow, you can have the plant-based milk of your choice with just the push of a button. Take your pick of almond milk, oat milk, cashew milk, or the nut, seed, or grain-based milk of your choosing. No straining bags are necessary!

Whether preparing lightweight, nutrient-dense food for hiking or storing garden harvests, Excalibur’s even drying system ensures consistent results across all trays, delivering flavorful and shelf-stable food.

8. Nama J2 Cold Press Juicer

The large hopper lets you add whole fruits and veggies, reducing the hassle of chopping.
