August 31, 2010 (PRLEAP.COM) Lifestyle News
It's Only Natural Gifts, specializing in organic gift baskets for individuals and businesses, announces a new line of gift sets,The Giving Bags – Gift Sets with a Cause. These gift sets were inspired by Lilly, a 15-year-old in Longmont, Colorado, who has started a weaving project for impoverished people in the rural village of Meru, Kenya. For each bag bought, It's Only Natural Gifts will donate $2 to Lilly's project.

With the money she's raised thus far, she has: transported a spinning wheel and loom to Kenya, purchased weaving materials, had floor looms made for weaving rugs, and paid for experienced weavers to train 20 people in the village. Lilly has a dream of getting all of the men and women fully trained to production level and eventually buying a spinning wheel for each person. The idea is for the group to create a weaving business and to become self-sufficient
The Giving Bag begins with an organic cotton canvas bag decorated with one of several choices of beautiful images, African weavings for instance, and allows the giver to choose the contents and personalize the gift for the recipient. Gift items that may be included in The Giving Bag are, in addition to being eco-friendly, natural or organic, supporters of great causes. The manufacturers of the sweets, snacks, teas, coffees, baby, pet, body care and household items, contribute in some way to make this world a better place. As the customer selects each gift item for the set they are giving, they are able to see what each company's good-hearted efforts are.
