This Mother’s Day, you can honor the women in your life while also supporting mothers around the world.
Because healthy, empowered moms can give their children the best start possible, UNICEF (United National Children’s Fund) works to support mothers by providing vital neonatal care and ensuring they have what they need to help their children grow up healthy and happy.
These gifts-that-give-back help support the organization’s lifesaving mission and can provide moms with a feel-good celebration.
Give Her the Globe
These Peruvian, hand-painted glass coasters by artisan Marlene Guisgueta also provide 16 packets of lifesaving nourishment to children suffering from acute malnutrition. Purchasing gifts from UNICEF Market supports the artisans’ families and local economies while funding lifesaving programs for mothers and children.
