[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Soma is a better water filter. Better looking, made with better, natural materials and makes the world better by getting clean water to people who need it.

What exactly makes this filter unique? Made out of plant based plastics and vegan silk, the filter is completely compostable and while other water filters, filter through a plastic material, Soma filters water through completely organic burnt coconut shells.

And they look really cool. The biggest departure from the traditional water filter design is their signature Carafe. This piece is a welcome addition to the kitchen counter or the dinner table. Even the more traditional Pitcher was crafted with an attention to design that makes for a elegant experience.

The Goodness: Every time you buy a Soma filter, they donate to charity: water projects. These contributions go directly to sustainable, community-owned water projects in developing countries.

SOMA breaks down their sustainability mission into 4 pillars:

1. ENDING THE GLOBAL WATER CRISIS

A portion of every filter purchased goes to charity: water.

2. REDUCING GLOBAL IMPACT

They offset emissions with conservation-based forestry.

3. GREEN PRODUCTS AND PACKAGING

They use post-consumer waste and recyclable materials.

4. RESPONSIBLE SUPPLY CHAIN PARTNERS

Soma’s code of conduct sets standards for labor practices, sustainability, transparency, animal-welfare, and anti-discrimination policies.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

The Doll Kind

Children

[vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In 2015 Victoria Farmer posted a picture on her Facebook account of her 2 year old daughter getting into a tub of paint. It went viral. Within days she was being interviewed by Good Morning America and dozens of news outlets. One night while she was up with her infant son she came across an article about the viral photo and read down through the comments. A few trolls were working themselves up into a nasty fervor and she wondered, how do we go from innocent children to this?

That’s where the idea for The Doll Kind, a doll that encouraged compassion and love came from.

How it works:

First choose a doll: Each doll is named after virtues: Fairness, Hope, Grace, and Joy. They are available in a variety of skin tones and both genders. They huggable soft and have a handmade look.

Next give out the tokens: Each doll comes with a “kindness kit”. Each kit includes 10 tokens with special phrases on them to show gratitude, love, and kindness. These tokens are meant for children to give out as acts of kindness. Also in the kit is a list of acts of kindness to inspire your child to get started sharing and giving their tokens. The doll has a secret pocket on the back to store a token.

Finally a doll is donated:  For each doll purchased, a doll will be donated by The Doll Kind to a child less fortunate. Donation sites include orphanages, hospitals, shelters, and more throughout the United States and countries across the world.

Every child is born with the desire to be kind and helpful to others, this toys is a wonderful outlet for that.

Kindness and giving promotes optimism, and builds confidence It also gives us a sense of hope. We feel empowered when we make a positive difference in the life of another. When we practice that at an early age it becomes a core way we interact with the world.

All dolls are $59 including The Fair Doll, The Hope Doll, The Grace Doll and The Joy Doll.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row”][vc_column][vc_column_text]
