With Christmas right around the corner, you may be feverishly planning out your last minute holiday shopping list. Worry not because we’ve got the animal lovers in your life covered!
For those looking to support our furry, four-legged friends this holiday season, there are numerous brands out there that donate a portion (or all!) of their proceeds to animal rights organizations. From tote bags to hair care products, here are seven *vegan* holiday items (all under $50!) that will make excellent gifts or stocking stuffers this holiday season — all of which support amazing animal causes!
1. Rahua Enchanted Island Salt Spray, $32.00
With a deliciously exotic, tropical fragrance, this non-toxic, vegan and cruelty-free sea salt spray is formulated with texturizing pink sea salt, Hibiscus extract, and Guayaba sugars to leave your hair with textured and voluminous “beachy” waves. Inspired by the lush flora of the Galapagos Islands, proceeds of each purchase will go directly to the Pink Flamingos Project, an eco-project created by Rahua founders that works to protect the habitat of the flamingos in the Galapagos Islands.
2. Last Chance for Animals — “There’s no excuse for animal abuse” t-shirt, $25.00
Founded in 1984 by Hollywood actor Chris DeRose, Last Chance for Animals is a Los Angeles-based animal rights nonprofit organization dedicated to eliminating animal exploitation. All proceeds from merchandise sales benefit LCA’s animal protection work, so snag one of their “there’s no excuse for animal abuse” tees or shop their holiday catalog!
3. Kat Von D — Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in Project Chimps, $20.00
A passionate animal rights advocate, Kat Von D specially designed this shade to help end animal testing. The exclusive shade “Project Chimps” provides vivid, highly pigmented color and lightweight, all-day coverage — plus, five percent of the retail price of each lipstick sold goes to Project Chimps, a nonprofit organization that works to end the use of chimps in biomedical research.
4. Hendrick & Co. — Stand Up Against Animal Abuse Tote, $19.99
With a wide range of women’s and men’s apparel, jewelry, drinkware, and accessories — plus gifts for your pet! — Hendrick & Co. is the perfect place to shop for your favorite animal lover! Hendrick & Co. partnered with over 600 animal rescues, shelters, and sanctuaries and donates a portion (typically $5 to $20) of every product to animal charities.

The perfect stocking stuffer, Endangered Species Chocolate donates ten percent of their net profits to protect endangered species and preserve wildlife habitats.
