Caring Causes: Easy Ways to Give

The holidays are here and the season of giving has arrived. Here are two easy ways to give back from zulily and J&J.

zulily Books for Kids

Now through December 12, zulily is teaming up with Penguin Random House and First Book, to help provide books to children in need across the country. zulily launched  special sales events that will feature a curated selection of children’s books. Each Penguin Random House book purchased labeled with the “BUY 1, GIVE 1” badge will trigger a new children’s book donation, up to 100,000 books, to First Book, a nonprofit that provides new books and other essentials to children in need nationwide. In addition, each time a shopper likes, shares or comments on a Books for Kids social media post, a book donation will be triggered.

J&J Wisdom by Kids

You know when a kid says something that makes you do a double take? Kids really do say the darndest things, and often times, surprisingly, the smartest. That’s why Johnson & Johnson created Wisdom by Kids, a digital tool that turns the wise things kids say into a unique and memorable piece of art – all while supporting children’s health around the world.

In celebration of Save the Children’s 100 year anniversary, Johnson & Johnson has gifted the organization the Wisdom by Kids platform through 2019. It’s pretty simple: every time you create a quote and share it on social media, Johnson & Johnson will donate $1 to Save the Children – up to $1,000,000!

Check out the platform here and give it a try! It saves kids’ words and saves children’s lives in the process.
